To convert the equation \(8x + y = 4\) into slope-intercept form, which is \(y = mx + b\) (where \(m\) is the slope and \(b\) is the y-intercept), we need to isolate \(y\).
Starting with the original equation:
\[
8x + y = 4
\]
Subtract \(8x\) from both sides:
\[
y = -8x + 4
\]
Now, the equation is in slope-intercept form. The slope \(m\) is \(-8\) and the y-intercept \(b\) is \(4\).
So, the equation in slope-intercept form is:
\[
y = -8x + 4
\]
