Question

Given m = - 1/4 & the point (4, 5)which of the following is the point slope form of the equation?

Answer 1

y - 5 = -1/4(x - 4)

Explanation:

Point slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope.

To find the point slope form, plug in the point given and the slope.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = -1/4(x - 4)
