1. Problem Description

The problem requires us to convert the equation 6xy=46x - y = 4 into slope-intercept form, identify the slope of the line, and find the y-intercept.

2. Solution Steps

Step 1: Convert the equation to slope-intercept form.
The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y=mx+by = mx + b, where mm is the slope and bb is the y-intercept.
Given equation: 6xy=46x - y = 4
Subtract 6x6x from both sides: y=6x+4-y = -6x + 4
Multiply both sides by 1-1: y=6x4y = 6x - 4
Step 2: Identify the slope of the line.
From the slope-intercept form y=6x4y = 6x - 4, the slope mm is the coefficient of xx, which is 66.
Step 3: Find the y-intercept.
The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, which occurs when x=0x = 0. From the slope-intercept form y=6x4y = 6x - 4, the y-intercept bb is 4-4. Thus, the y-intercept as a coordinate pair is (0,4)(0, -4).

3. Final Answer

y=6x4y = 6x - 4
m=6m = 6
(0,4)(0, -4)
