since slope intercept is y=mx+b, you first want to get rid of the 2x by subtracting it from both sides. after, you should end up with 4y=16-2x or 4y=-2x+16, they both are the same, but some teachers might prefer the slope first. after that, you want to get the y alone, so you divide everything by 4. you should end up with the slope intercept form being y=-2/4x+4, simplified to y=-1/2x+4.
