Question

Find the equation of line that passes through the point (4,-5) and the slope 5/4

Answer 1

`\boxed{\sf{y=(5)/(4)x-10 }}`

Explanation:

To find the equation of line, you have to use a slope and slope-intercept formula.

Slope formula:

`\Longrightarrow:\sf{(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) }`

Slope-intercept formula:

`\Longrightarrow:\sf{y=mx+b}`

• M represents the slope.
• B represents the y-intercept.

• So, the slope is 5/4.
• The y-intercept is -10.

Rewrite the problem down.

y=5/4x-10

• So, the correct answer is y=5/4x-10.
