The slope is $\frac{4}{1}$ $4/1$
The intercept is 0

Explanation:

The slope intercept form of a linear equation is $y = m x + b$ $y=mx+b$
where $m$ $m$ is the slope and $b$ $b$ is the y intercept.

For the equation $y = 4 x$ $y=4x$ or $y = 4 x + 0$ $y=4x+0$
the $m = 4$ $m = 4$ and the $b = 0$ $b=0$

Remember that the slope is the rise over the run $\frac{r i s e}{r u n}$ $(rise)/(run)$ and therefore the slope for this equation would be $\frac{4}{1}$ $4/1$ .
