Question

Find the? slope-intercept form for the line satisfying the conditions.y=-1/2+6

Answer 1

slope = -1/2, y intercept = 6

y=mx + b is the general form for the slope y intercept equation. For the given equation, m=-1/2 b = 6

But you did say slope intercept form. Generally that does mean slope y intercept form. It's possible you mgiht have meant, (although most unlikely) a slope x intercept from. IF so, then

y=(-1/2)x + 6

is equivalent to

y-6 = -x/2 Let y=0 and solve for x

-6 = -x/2

x= 12

x = -2y + 12 where -2 is the inverse of the normal slope, with 12 as the x intercept.

unlikely you intended this, but for completeness, it's a tiny possibility.
