The slope-intercept form is given by:


y=mx+b

Therefore, to find this form, we need to solve for y the given equation:


6x+4y=4

Subtract both sides 6x:


6x-6x+4y=4-6x
4y=4-6x

Now, divide both sides by 4:


(4y)/(4)=(4-6x)/(4)

Simplify the expression:


y=(4)/(4)-(6x)/(4)
y=1-(3x)/(2)

We can rewrite the equation as:


y=-(3x)/(2)+1

Where -3/2 represents the slope and 1 represents the y-intercept.
