Write the equation of a line which has a slope of -4 and passes through the point (-5,1) ? What is the answer ? Thank you!!!

In order to solve this, we must use the formula y=mx+b Where m=slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First substitute -4 in for "m" y = -4x+b Our goal is to find out what "b" equals. This can be done by substituting the given x and y values y=-4x+b 1=-4(-5)+b Are you with me so far?
