Question

y - 3 = -4(x + 1)
Slope intercept form

Answer 1

To write the equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), we first distribute the -4 on the right side:

y - 3 = -4x - 4

Next, we add 3 to both sides to isolate y:

y = -4x - 1

Therefore, the equation in slope-intercept form is y = -4x - 1.
