Question

Find the equation of the line

Passing through (-5,4) with slope -3

Answer 1

y = -3x - 11

Explanation:

With the slope given, we know the equation will be y = -3x + b

Now, we can find b by plugging in the point that was given:

4 = -3(-5) + b

4 = 15 + b

-11 = b

So, the equation will be y = -3x - 11

Answer 2

y=-3x-11

Explanation:

y-4=-3(x+5)

y-4=-3x-15

y=-3x-11
