Question

Through (-2,5) slope=-4

Answer 1

The point-slope form:

`y-y_1=m(x-x_1)`

We have the point (-2, 5) and the slope m = -4. Substitute:

`y-5=-4(x-(-2))`

`y-5=-4(x+2)` use distributive property

`y-5=-4x-8` add 5 to both sides

`y=-4x-3` add 4x to both sides

`4x+y=-3`

Answer:

point-slope form: y - 5 = -4(x + 2)

slope-intercept form: y = -4x - 3

standard form: 4x + y = -3
