Explanation:
#"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form"# is.
#•color(white)(x)y=mx+b#
#"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept"#
#"rearrange "1/3x+y=2" into this form"#
#"subtract "1/3x" from both sides"#
#y=-1/3x+2larrcolor(blue)"in slope-intercept form"#
#"with slope "=-1/3" and y-intercept "=2#
