Answer:

y = -3x + 4

Explanation:

So the -3 is the slope and the slope always has an x and the y intercept is b which is 4

Answer:

y = -3x + 4

Explanation:

slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

Note that: m = slope

y- intercept = b

m = slope = -3

y-intercept = b = 4

Plug in the corresponding number to the corresponding variables:

y = mx + b

y = -3x + 4 is your answer.
