Slope is -2
y-intercept at y=2 #->(x,y)=(0,2)#

Explanation:

You could manipulate this into the form of #y=mx+c# but you only need to do this in part but in trying to cut corners you could make a mistake. So lets convert it!

divide both sides by 4 giving

#2x+y=2#

subtract #2x# from both sides

#y=-2x+2#

#color(blue)("The slope (gradient) is m in "y=mx+c" " =>" " m=-2)#

The y-intercept is when #x=0#

Thus we have #color(brown)(y=-2x+2)color(green)(" "->" "y=-2(0)+2)#

#color(blue)(y_("intercept")=2)#
