To find the equation of a slope, you use the following equation:
- y = m(
- x)
All you do now is substitute in the value for the gradient, y and x, like so:
Note: gradient =
, y = -4, x = 3
- y = m(
- x)
y - - 4 =
( x - 3) ( note, 2 negatives make a positive)
y + 4 =
( x - 3)
--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer
C ) y + 4 =
( x - 3)
