I’m pretty sure that the slope of that function is 5/8

Problem: Same y intercept as x+4y=16, through (4,5)

Y intercept is when x=0 so 4y=16, y=4, y intercept (0,4)

Slope of line through (0,4) and (4,5) is change in y over change in x,

m = (5 - 4)/(4 - 0) = 1/4

Answer: slope 1/4

Check:

The new line is y = (1/4) x + 4

because the y intercept is still (0,4)

Let's check it's through (4,5)

(1/4) (4) + 4 = 5 check
