Question

What is the point-slope equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line shown and passes through (-4, -3)?

Answer 1

y+3= -4x

Explanation:

general equation is (y-y1) = m(x-x1)

m=rise/run= -4/1 (is negative because looking from left to right on the graph it goes downward)

pick any point on the line to put in. the equation for example (0,-3)

y+3= -4x
