Answer:

C Slope = -4/3, Y-Intercept = 4
Explanation:

The Y- Intercept is where the line contacts the Y-Axis (the vertical line)
Since the line is going down, the slope is going to be negative. You fine the slope by finding a point the line goes through perfectly and then since its negative, go down however many it is until the line goes through another point perfectly, then go right and how many points it takes to get to the point is your denominator. (so your slope is -4/3)
