\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{Our problem:}}

Write the equation of the line in P.S. form given the information below.


\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{This problem has been solved!}}

We cannot write an equation in Point-Slope Form, without knowing the Point-Slope Equation.
\bf{y-y1=m(x-x1)}.

Now, all that we need to do is plug in the information given, that is

  • Slope =
    \bf{-(1)/(5)}.
  • Y-intercept =
    \bf{-3 ==== > > (0,-3)}


\rule{300}{1.7}


\bf{y-(-3)=-(1)/(5)(x-0)}


\triangledown


\bf y+3=-(1)/(5)(x-0)}


\rule{300}{1.7}


\bf{y+3=-(1)/(5)(x-0).\;Hope\;the\;rest\;of\;your\;day\;is\;going\;to\;be\;fun!}


\rule{300}{1.7}

\boxed{\bf{aesthetic \\ot101}}~
