Question

(8,-7)m=-3/4 write an equation in point slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope

Answer 1

Equation of the straight line in point-slope form

y -(-7) =
`(-3)/(4)`(x-8)

Equation of the straight line

3x +4y +4=0

Explanation:

Explanation:-

Given that the point ( 8,-7) and
`m = (-3)/(4)`

Equation of the straight line passing through the point (x₁, y₁) and having slope 'm'

y - y₁ = m (x-x₁)

y -(-7) =
`(-3)/(4)`(x-8)

4( y+7) = -3(x-8)

4y +28 = -3x +24

3x +4y +28 -24 =0

3x +4y +4=0
