Question

Write the equation that satisfies the given conditions.

The slope is -4 and the line passes through the point (-2, 3).

y = -4x - 5
y = -4x + 5
y = -4x + 11

Answer 1

y = mx + b
3 = -4(-2) + b
b = - 5

equation
y = -4x - 5
answer

y = -4x-5

Answer 2

y-y1= m(x-x1)

y-3= -4(x-(-2))
y-3= -4(x+2)
y-3= -4x-8
y= -4x-5

Final answer: A
