Question

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

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

slope = ; y intercept at (0, 1)

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

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

Answer 1

First change that equation into the standard
y=mx +b form (where m is the slope, x and y are the coordinates (x,y) and b is the y intercept)

You will have to substract x from both sides and get
-4y = 4-x

Then divide both sides by -4 get y by itself, getting you
y= (-x+4)/-4
y=(1\4)x -1

The slope is (1/4, which is m)
The y-intercept is (-1, which is b)

Complete. Simple enough. :)

Answer 2

put the equation into slope intercept form

x - 4y = 4
x = 4y + 4
4y = x-4
y = 1/4*x - 1

The slope is then 1/4 and the intercept is -1.
