The graph that represents the equation y - 4 = -3(x+5) is the graph (a)

Which graph represents the equation?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

y - 4 = -3(x+5)

The slope of the above equation is -3

This represents a negative slope

Next we have the y-intercept to be

y - 4 = -3(0 + 5)

y = -3(0 + 5) + 4

Evaluate

y = -11

Next we have the x-intercept to be

0 - 4 = -3(x + 5)

x = 4/3 - 5

Evaluate

x = -3.67

So, we have the graph that represents the equation to be (a)
