General  formula of line equation is y = mx + c

Here slope = m and y-intercept = c

1) 8x + y = 4

y = -8x + 4

Slope = -8 and y -intercept = 4

2) -3x + 2y = 8

2y = 3x + 8

y = (3/2)x + (8/2)

y = (3/2)x + 4

Slope =3/2 and y -intercept = 4

3) y = 4x - 5

Slope =4 and y -intercept = -5

4) y = -(1/6) x + 2

Slope =-(1/6)  and y -intercept = 2

Standerd form to slope intercept line y = mx+b

a) 8x+y = 4

y = -8x+4

y intercept = 4,slope = -8

b)-3x+2y=8

2y = 3x+8

y = (3/2)x+8//2

y = (3/2)x +4

y intercept = 4,slope = 3/2

c)y=4x-5

y intercept = -5,slope = 4

d)y = -1/6x+2

y intercept = 2, slope = -1/6
