Answer

From the rearranged equation, we can see that the y-intercept (c) is 4.

Steps

Step 1 :The general form of a linear equation is \(y = mx + c\), where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

Step 2 :First, we need to rearrange the given equation to the general form. \[2y = -4x + 8\] \[y = -2x + 4\]

Step 3 :From the rearranged equation, we can see that the y-intercept (c) is 4.
