A) $y = - 4 x + 16$
B) $f ( x ) = - 5 x - 4$
C) $- 4 x + 12 y = 16$
D) $x = - 4$

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct symbolic expression for a linear function with a y-intercept of -4 is $f(x) = -5x - 4$, as the y-intercept is the constant term in the linear equation $y = mx + b$, where $b = -4$ in this case.
