Answer:

y = 4

Explanation:

When given a point and a slope, we use slope-intercept formula:

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

m = slope point: (-4,4)

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

y - 4 = 0 (x - 1)

y - 4 = 0x + 0

+ 4 + 4

y = 4

The answer can't be written in slope-intercept form, as the 0"s cancel out.

Hope this helps!
