Question

PLEASE HELP ME
Write the equation in standard form of the line through J(4, 1)with slope –4.

Answer 1

plug into the point slope formula
y-y1=m(x-x1) :]

Answer 2

NO

Answer 3

the standard form of a linear equation is y=mx+b

Answer 4

YEAH

Answer 5

so how can we get y-1=-4x+4 to look like that?

Answer 6

wait i'm working it out now

Answer 7

can you work it out and ill follow

Answer 8

y=-4(4)+1= -15
Y=-4X-15?

Answer 9

y-1=-4(x-4) = y-1=-4x+16
add 1 to both sides
y=-4x+17

Answer 10

and thats it in standard form ?

Answer 11

yes, y=mx+b m is the slope of -4 and b is the y intercept of 17
