Answer:

y = 5/4 x + 9

y = -5x+4

Explanation:

a)The equation of the line in slope intercept form is expressed as y = mx+b

m is the slope

b is the intercept

Given

Slope m = 5/4

y-intercpet = 9

Substitute

y = mx+b

y = 5/4 x + 9

b) Given the coordinates (0,4) and (2, -6)

Slope m = -6-4/2-0

m = -10/2

m = -5

Since the y intercept of the line is (0, 4), hence b = 4

Get the equation

Recall

y = mx+b

y = -5x +4

This gives the required equation
