Answer 1

The answer for the y-intercept is (0, -3/4). The answer for the slope is -5/4.

Explanation:

You know this because you must pull the 4 out of the equation, along with the y, so it is -4y=5x+3. You would put both of these numbers over 4: (5 and 3). A positive number which is 5, divided by a negative gives you negative so you can just say -5/4. Same with +3/-4. You can change it to -3/4, because positive over negative equals negative answer.

Answer 2

y - intercept: 3/4

slope: -5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

put into slope-intercept form first, y = -5/4x + 3/4

then you can see that the slope and y - intercept are -5/4 and 3/4
