Hello! :)


\large\boxed{\text{m = -8, b = 22}}

Find the slope and y-intercept by rearranging the equation into the following format:

y = mx + b

We are given the equation:

16x + 2y = 44

Rearrange by subtracting 16x from both sides:

2y = -16x + 44

Divide all terms by 2:

y = -8x + 22

In this equation, the m-value is -8 and the b value is 22.

Therefore, m = -8, and b = 22.
