Answer:

y intercept) -1

slope) 4/3

Explanation:

To find the slope, we first need to move the 1 to the other side to get:

y = 4/3x - 1

The slope of an equation is basically the number next to the x, and it calculates the rise over the run. For this equation, for example, the slope is:

4/3

The y-intercept is when the line crosses the y-axis. Since all slope intercept form problems are written as y = mx + b, the b defines the y-intercept in this case it is:

-1
