ANSWER
A. The slope is -5
The y intercept is (0, 4)
EXPLANATION
We are given the function:
y = -5x + 4
The slope of a function is the rate of change of the y values of that function with respect to the x values.
The intercept is the point where the graph touches the y axis. It is the value of a function when x is zero.
It can be written as (0, c) where c is the intercept.
A linear function is generally written as:
y = mx + c
where m = slope
c = y intercept
Therefore, from the question:
m, slope = -5
c = 4
Therefore, the slope is -5 and the y intercept is (0, 4). (Option A)
