$y = 4 x + 1$ $y=4x+1$

Explanation:

Slope intercept form can be represented as $y = m x + b$ $y=mx +b$
To get an equation into this form, we should try to get $y$ $y$ all alone.

From $4 x - y = - 1$ $4x - y = -1$
first, we can add $y$ $y$ to both sides
and get $4 x = y - 1$ $4x = y - 1$
then add $1$ $1$ to both sides
to get $\Rightarrow y = 4 x + 1$ $=>y= 4x + 1$
which is now in slope intercept form :)
