Answer:

The slope is 2 and the y-intercept is -6

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where

m is unit rate or the slope of the linear equation

b is the y-intercept or initial value (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

In this problem we have

[tex]y=2x-6[/tex]

therefore

the slope is equal to

[tex]m=2[/tex]

and

[tex]b=-6[/tex]

Verify

For x=0

[tex]y=2(0)-6=-6[/tex] ---> is ok
