Question

Write the equation in slope intercept form y+4=-(x-7)/ Please help I don't get this and I have a final on thursday.​

Answer 1

`y=-x+3`

Explanation:

we have

`y+4=-(x-7)`

This is the equation of the line in point slope form

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to

`y=mx+b`

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

Convert the equation to slope intercept form

remove the parenthesis right side

`y+4=-x+7`

subtract 4 both sides

`y+4-4=-x+7-4`

`y=-x+3` ---> equation in slope intercept form
