Answer:

y = -2x + 3

Explanation:

4x + 2y - 6 = 0

2y - 6 = -4x

2y = -4x + 6

y = -2x + 3

Answer:

The slope-intercept form is,

y = -2x + 3

Explanation:

The given equation of the line is,

4x + 2y - 6 = 0

Subtracting "(4x- 6)" from both sides of the above equation, we get

4x + 2y - 6 - (4x - 6) = 0 - (4x - 6)

⇒ 4x + 2y - 6 - 4x + 6 = 0 - 4x + 6

⇒ 2y = -4x + 6

Now, dividing both sides by '2' of the above equation, we get

2y ÷ 2 = (-4x + 6) ÷ 2

y = -2x + 3

This is the required slope-intercept form of the given line.
