How to rewrite \(x + 4y = -4\) in the form \(y = mx + b\)?

x + 4 y = − 4 4 y = − x − 4 y = − 4 1 ​ x − 1

so if you want y=mx+b
you subtract x from both sides and get 4y=x-4 divide both sides by 4 y=(1/4)x-1 or y=(1/4)x+(-1)

To rewrite x + 4 y = − 4 in the form y = m x + b , isolate y to find y = − 4 1 ​ x − 1 , where the slope m = − 4 1 ​ and the y-intercept b = − 1 . This indicates a downward slope with a y-axis crossing at -1.
