Question

Write an equation in point slope form and change into slope intercept form

m= -4 contains (0,3)
explain the work plz

Answer 1

• y -3 = -4(x -0) or y -3 = -4x
• y = -4x +3

Explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of a line with slope m through point (h, k) is ...

y -k = m(x -h)

Fill in the given values:

y -3 = -4(x -0) . . . . point-slope form of the equation of the line

__

To get this to slope-intercept form, you want to rearrange it to ...

y = mx + b

Eliminating parentheses get you ...

y -3 = -4x

Adding 3 puts the equation in the desired form:

y = -4x +3
