Question

I’m really confused on how to solve slope intercept form related problems and help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Answer 1

we know that

the equation in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

in this problem we have

m=-1/4

point (-4,2)

substitute the given values in the expression above and solve for b

so

2=(-1/4)*(-4)+b

2=1+b

b=1

therefore

the equation is

y=-(1/4)x+1

option D
