It already is (?)

Explanation:

Standard form for linear equations is the basic equation to help with graphing. It is as follows:

#y = mx +b#

Where #y# is being solved for,
#x# is the point that is being plugged in
#m# is the slope of the equation,
and #b# is the y-intercept, the point where the equation crosses the y-axis, and the value of #x# is 0

From the equation given, we can analyze it as so:

#y = 2x +4#

#y# is being solved for
#x# = the coordinate being plugged in
#m = 2#, a.k.a. the slope
#b = 4#, which is the y-intercept
