Answer:


\rightarrow \boxed{\sf{y-5=4(x-1)}}

Explanation:

Point slope form:


\sf{y-y_1=m(x-x_1)}

m represents the slope.

y-5=4(x-1)

Slope-intercept form:


\sf{y=mx+b}

m represents the slope.

b represents the y-intercept.

So, the slope-intercept form is y=4x+1.

Therefore, the correct answer is y-5=4(x-1).

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.
