Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

The y intercept is 4 so you can mark a point on the line at (0, 4).This is a point on the y-axis 4 units up from the origin (origin is where the axis cross).

The slope is negative so the line will rise to the left.

Mark a point which is 1 unit horizontally to the left of point (0, 4) and 5 units vertically upwards.

Then draw the line to pass through this point and the point (0, 4)

The equation of the line is y = -5x + 4.
