Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line in slope- intercept fprm is
y = mx + b ( m is the slope and b the y-intercept )
y = [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] x - 4 is in this form
with m = [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] and b = - 4
Plot the point (0, - 4)
using the slope add 5 to the y-coordinate and 4 to the x-coordinate
(0, - 4 ) → (0 + 4, - 4 + 5) → (4, 1) ← point on the line
Plot the points (0, - 4) and (4, 1) and draw a straight line through them to obtain a sketch of the graph
