Slope intercept form of a line is y=mx+b where m= slope and b=y-intercept.

Given slope:m= -4 and the line passes through (1,6).

Point slope form of a line is:

$y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )$

So, first step is to plug in m=-4, x1=1 and y1=6 in the above equation. So,

y-6=-4(x-1)

y-6=-4x+4 By distribution property.

y=-4x+4+6 Add 6 to each sides of the equation.

y=-4x+10

So, slope intercept form is y=-4x+10.

Answer:

Real word Problem:- Jean is working in a pizza shop. She has 60 kg of flour. She has used one-fifth of it for making pizzas. How much flour she used for making pizzas?

Solution:- Quantity of flour she has= 60 kg

The quantity she used in making pizzas= $\frac{1}{5}\ of\ 60$

$=\frac{1}{5}\times60=12\ kg$

hence, she used 12 kg of flour for making pizzas.

Here the multiplication of a fraction and a whole number $=\frac{1}{5}\times60$ and its answer is between 10 and 15, since 10<12<15.
