Answer: The required slope-intercept form of the given linear equation is


y=4x-14.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to write the following linear equation in slope-intercept form :


y+2=4(x-3)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

We know that

the slope-intercept form of a straight line is written as


y=mx+c,

where 'm' is the slope and 'c' is the y-intercept of the line.

From equation (i), we have


y+2=4(x-3)\\\\\Rightarrow y+2=4x-12\\\\\Rightarrow y=4x-12-2\\\\\Rightarrow y=4x-14.

Thus, the required slope-intercept form of the given linear equation is


y=4x-14, where slope, m = 4 and y-intercept, c = -14.
