Answer:

All you have to do is turn x-2y=6 into y=mx+b form. That would mean you need to get y by itself. Subtract x from 6. Then you have -2y=6-x. Now you have to divide both sides of the equation by -2. So then you have -2y/-2 = 6-x/-2. That turns out to y=3-1/2x Which is easier read by: y=1/2x - 3
