Question

Now, use this information to complete the equation for the line. Write it in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

The answer to your question is y = -4x

Explanation:

Data

Point (1, -4)

slope = -4

Formula

Use the point-slope formula to find the equation of the line

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

x1 = 1

y1 = -4

-Substitution

y + 4 = -4(x - 1)

- Simplification

y + 4 = -4x + 4

y = -4x + 4 - 4

- Result

y = -4x
