Answer:
the classmate is incorrect
Step-by-step explanation:
when you do the math for both inequalities they are equal to each other, despite the fact that one has multiplication and the other has addition.
The general form of slope-intercept form is y=mx+b
m stands for the slope
b stands for the y intercept
They are giving you m so you can replace m with -4/5 ⇒ y=-4/5x+b
Now you just need to find b. They also give you the point (0,-3). This means that when x is 0, y is equal to -3.
Lets go back to y=-4/5x+b and replace x with 0 and y with -3.
⇒ -3=(-4/5)(0) + b
⇒ -3= 0+b
⇒ -3=b
⇒ b=-3
Now that you have m and b, you can find your final answer in the form y=mx+b
⇒ y=-4/5x + (-3)
⇒ y= -4/5x - 3
