slope = - 1/2 and y-intercept = 7/2
Explanation:
We know the slope-intercept form of an equation of a line
is y = mx + c where slope is m and y-intercept is c.
Here, we have to form 2x + 4y = 14 as per y = mx + c.
So, 4y = +(-2)x + 14 [divide both sides by 4]
or,
or,
Hence the slope = - 1/2 and y-intercept = 7/2.
