Explanation:
#"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form"# is.
#•color(white)(x)y=mx+b#
#"rearrange "2x+4y=17" into this form"#
#"subtract "2x" from both sides"#
#cancel(2x)cancel(-2x)+4y=-2x+17#
#rArr4y=-2x+17#
#"divide all terms by 4"#
#rArry=-1/2x+17/4larrcolor(red)"in slope- intercept form"#
