#y=4x+34#

Explanation:

The equation of a line in #color(blue)"slope-intercept form"# is.

#color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(y=mx+b)color(white)(2/2)|)))#
where m represents the slope and b, they-intercept.

#"Rearrange " y-10=4(x+6)" into this form"#

distribute the bracket.

#y-10=4x+24#

add 10 to both sides.

#ycancel(-10)cancel(+10)=4x+24+10#
