y=-4x+1

Here are the key facts about the line y = -4x + 1, useful for exams:

• Slope (m): -4 (steep negative slope)
• y-intercept (b): 1 (point (0, 1))
• x-intercept: set y = 0 → 0 = -4x + 1 → x = 1/4, so (1/4, 0)
• Standard form: 4x + y - 1 = 0
• Domain: all real numbers; Range: all real numbers
• Quick points on the line:
  • x = 0 → y = 1 (0, 1)
  • x = 1 → y = -3 (1, -3)
  • x = -1 → y = 5 (-1, 5)
  • x = 2 → y = -7 (2, -7)

Sample quick problems (with solutions):

• Find y when x = 5: y = -4(5) + 1 = -20 + 1 = -19.
• Find x when y = -2: -2 = -4x + 1 → -3 = -4x → x = 3/4.
• Equation of a line parallel to y = -4x + 1 that passes through (2, 0): y - 0 = -4(x - 2) → y = -4x + 8.
