Solve for x -x + 2 = 4

x= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. subtract 2 from both sides to leave x by itself

2. divide both sides by 1 to make x positive

y=-2x+5, slope= -2, y-intercept= 5 (so, first option)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b. m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept. to get the equation to the slope intercept form, you get y by itself- subtract 4x from both sides and then divide by 2 on both sides.
