Answer

$\text{Slope: } \dfrac{9}{5} \\\\\text{$y-$intercept: } -4$

Work Step by Step

Using $y=mx+b$ where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the $y-$intercept, then the equation $ y=\dfrac{9}{5}x-4 $ has the following characteristics: \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} \text{Slope: } \dfrac{9}{5} \\\\\text{$y-$intercept: } -4 .\end{array}
