[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To transform the equation 4x - 8y = 24 to slope-intercept form, we need to solve for y.

Start by subtracting 4x from both sides of the equation:
-8y = -4x + 24

Next, divide by -8 to isolate y:
y = (4/8)x - 24/8

Simplify the fraction:
y = (1/2)x - 3

Therefore, the equation 4x - 8y = 24 can be written in slope-intercept form as y = (1/2)x - 3.
