Standerd form of line y = mx+b

4y = -6(x-5)

4y = -6x+30

Divide to each side by 4.

4y/4 = -6x/4+30/4

y = (-3/2)x+15/2

Slope of the line m = -3/2

Given that line is 4y = -6(x - 5)

4y = -6(x - 5)

4y = -6x + 30

y = (-6/4)x + 30/4

General form of slope intercept form of a line is y = mx + c here m = slope and x = y-intercept.

slope(m) = -6/4 and y-intercept = 30/4
