Answer:

a. Slope intercept form:
y= 4x +11

b. The y intercept is 11

c. The x intercept is
-(11)/(4)

d. Standard Form:
y - 4x = 11

e. See attachment for graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Slope (m)


m = 4


(x_1,y_1) = (-2,3)

Solving (a): The line equation in slope intercept

This is solved using:


y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

Substitute values for y1, x1 and m


y - 3 = 4(x - (-2))


y - 3 = 4(x +2)


y - 3 = 4x +8

Add 3 to both sides


y - 3 +3= 4x +8 + 3


y= 4x +11

Solving (b): The y intercept

To do this, we simply take x as 0.

Substitute 0 for x in
y= 4x +11


y = 4(0) + 11


y = 0 + 11


y = 11

The y intercept is 11

Solving (c): The x intercept

To do this, we simply take y as 0.

Substitute 0 for y in
y= 4x +11


0 = 4x + 11

Collect Like Terms


4x=0-11


4x=-11

Solve for x


x = -(11)/(4)

The x intercept is
-(11)/(4)

The y intercept is 11

d. The equation in standard form

Equation in standard form is written in the following format:
Ax + By = c


y= 4x +11

Subtract 4x from both sides


y - 4x = 4x - 4x + 11


y - 4x = 11

Hence, the equation in standard form is
y - 4x = 11

e. The graph

We have that:


(-2,3) ---- given

In (b), we calculated the y intercept to be 11.

This implies that:
(0,11)

So, we can plot the graph through
(0,11) and
(-2,3)
