Answer: y = 1/4x + 4

Step-by-step explanation: Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b form.

To get the y by itself, add x to both sides to get -4y = x - 16.

Now divide both sides by -4 to get y = -1/4x + 4.

The y-intercept is our constant term or our 4.

Answer:

Slope = (-1/4)

y-intercept = 4

Explanation:

Slope intercept form: y = mx + b

Slope = m & y-intercept = b

-x - 4y = -16

-4y = x - 16

Divide the equation by (-4)


y = (1)/(-4)x - (16)/(-4)\\\\\\y = (-1)/(4)x + 4

Slope = (-1/4)

y-intercept = 4
