Hello there. To solve this question, we'll have to remember some properties about the equation of a line.
Given the equation:
We have to determine the slope and the y-intercept of this line.
For this, the best way to start is to find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form. It is given by:
Where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.
To do so, we simply have to solve the equation for y.
Start subtracting 4x on both sides of the equation:
Divide both sides of the equation by a factor of 3
Comparing it to the slope-intercept form of the line, we find that:
These are the slope and the y-intercept of the equation.
