Answer:

y+9=-1(x-4)

Explanation:

Point Slope Form is:


y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

When:

'm' is the slope.


(x_1,y_1) is the coordinate.

We are given the slope of -1 and the coordinate of (4,-9).

So:


m=-1\\x_1=4\\y_1=-9

Using the information and replacing the values we get:


y+9=-1(x-4)

So, the line equation in point slope form should be: y+9=-1(x-4)
