A line passes through the point (4, -6) and has a slope of -3/4. Which is the equation of the line?
y=-3/4x-3
y =-3/4x-6
y=-3x-3/4
y=-6x-3/4

Answer 1

y = -3/4x-3

Explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -3/4x +b

We can substitute the point into the equation

-6 = -3/4 (4) +b

-6= -3+b

Add 3 to each side

-6+3 = -3+3 +b

-3 = b

y = -3/4x-3
