Answer:

y=4x+40

Explanation:

slope equals 4

x-intercept= -10

y=mx+b for the x-intercept the y equals zero so plugging zero the y and -10 to the x

0=4(-10)+b

0=-40+b now you isolate the variables

b=40 so the equation is y=4x+40 because you have the slope you just pluggin the numbers to the equation
