Explanation:
The equation of a line in
#color(blue)"slope-intercept form"# is.
#color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(y=mx+b)color(white)(2/2)|)))#
where m represents the slope and b, the y-intercept.
#"Rearrange "y+2=1/6(x-4)" into this form"# distribute bracket and simplify.
#y+2=1/6x-2/3#
#rArry=1/6x-2/3-2#
#rArry=1/6x-8/3larrcolor(red)" in slope-intercept form"#
