Answer:

-3

Explanation:

The y intercept (when already written in slope-intercept form) is on the side of the equation without the actual variable y. The number with x is the slope. In this specific equation, the slope is 4 because it is with the variable x, and the y intercept is the other number, -3. The 3 is negative because subtraction signs are actually negative signs too.

Hope this helps!! Have a great day ^^
