Question

A point

Find the equation of a line when given the slope and a point on the line.
Question:
What is the equation of the line that has a slope of -7 and passes through the point (4,8)?
A
+ 7y = 60
B
7x + y = 36
С
2 - 7y = -52
D
72- y = 20

Answer 1

7x + y =36

Explanation:

( y- y1) = m(x - x1)

y - 8 = -7( x - 4)

y- 8 =-7x +28

y = -7x +36

7x + y =36
