\"4x%2By=2\" Start with the given equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y=2-4x\" Subtract \"4x\" from both sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y=-4x%2B2\" Rearrange the terms.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the equation \"y=-4x%2B2\" is now in slope intercept form \"y=mx%2Bb\" where the slope is \"m=-4\" and the y-intercept is \"b=2\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
