ANSWER

A. The slope is -5

The y intercept is (0, 4)

Step-by-step explanation

We are given the function:

y = -5x + 4

The slope of a function is the rate of change of the y values of that function with respect to the x values.

The intercept is the point where the graph touches the y axis. It is the value of a function when x is zero.

It can be written as (0, c) where c is the intercept.

A linear function is generally written as:

y = mx + c

where m = slope

c = y intercept

Therefore, from the question:

m, slope = -5

c = 4

Therefore, the slope is -5 and the y intercept is (0, 4). (Option A)
