Question

Write an equation that passes through the given point with the given slope
(-5,4); slope -3

Answer 1

y-4= -3(x+5)

This is in the point slope form^

y=-3x-11

This is in the Slope intercept form ^

idk which one your supposed to use tho sorry

Answer 2

y = - 3x - 11

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 3, thus

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 5, 4) into the partial equation

4 = 15 + c ⇒ c = 4 - 15 = - 11

y = - 3x - 11 ← equation of line
