Answer:

Slope = 4, y-intercept = (0,0)

Explanation:

This problem is written in slope-intercept form. Meaning it is in the form y=mx+b. "M" is the slope, and "B" is the y-intercept. With that information, we easily see that 4 is the slope of the graph (it will go up 4 points for everyone one point it goes right). It seems that there is no y-intercept though, that is because we are expected to know that y=4x is the same as y=4x+0. Meaning, the problem can also be written this way and the y-intercept must be 0.
