For the linear function $f(x) = -3x + 4$, the general form is:

$f(x) = mx + b$

Where:

• $m$ is the slope.
• $b$ is the y-intercept.

In your function:

• $m = -3$ (slope),
• $b = 4$ (y-intercept).

So, the slope is -3 and the y-intercept is 4.

Would you like me to assist with parts (b)-(d), or offer more details on how slope and y-intercept are determined?

Here are 5 related questions to consider:

1. How can you graph a linear function using its slope and y-intercept?
2. What happens to the graph when the slope changes but the y-intercept stays the same?
3. How do you find the x-intercept of a linear function?
4. Can a linear function have a slope of zero? What does that mean graphically?
5. What is the significance of a negative slope in a linear function?

Tip: The y-intercept tells you where the graph crosses the y-axis, while the slope determines how steep the line is!
