Question

Identify the correct slope and y intercept of the equation x - 4y = 4.

slope = 4; y intercept at (0, -1)

slope = 1/4; y intercept at (0, 1)

slope = 1/4; y intercept at (0, -1)

slope = -4; y intercept at (0, 1)

Answer 1

Slope-Intercept form.
y = mx + b
m is slope
b is y-intercept

Change x - 4y = 4 into slope-intercept form~

x - 4y = 4

Subtract x from both sides.

-4y = -x + 4

Divide both sides by -4.

y = 1/4x - 1

So, what is your slope? What is the y-intercept?

Answer 2

slope = 1/4; y intercept at (0, 1) is that correct?

Answer 3

Very close: the y-intercept is -1

Answer 4

Oh okay thats what I thought at first. But thanks a million.

Answer 5

You're welcome. (:
