Explanation:

Hey there!

The given point is (8,-3) as (x1,y1) and slope (m) = -3/4.

Note: use one point formula for finding the equation.


(y - y1) = m(x - x1)

Put all values.


(y + 3) = - ( 3)/(4) (</u><u>x</u><u> - 8)

Simplify it.


(y + 3) = - ( 3)/(4) x - 8 * - (3)/(4)


(y + 3) = - (3)/(4) x + 6


y = - (3)/(4) x + 6 - 3


y = - (3)/(4) x + 3

Therefore, the equation is; y = -3/4x+3.

Hope it helps...
