Question

SHOW THE EQUATION OF A LINE, IN SLOPE-INTERCEPT FORM, THAT PASSES THROUGH THE POINT (-3,5) AND HAS A SLOPE OF -4

Answer 1

well do u know what the slope intercept form of the line is?

Answer 2

I KNOW THE EQUATION IS y = mx+b.

Answer 3

your caps lock hurts my eyes, pls relieve me of my torture

Answer 4

Yeap and where m is the slope right? also b is the y -intercept
now as the line passes through (-3,5) , it must satisfy the y = mx + c equation
put the values of the m , x, and y (these are given) and find the y-intercept? can u do it?

Answer 5

O_O i never knew i could be this patient .-..

Answer 6

so much for a "Yes i can"/"No i have this doubt" Answer o_O

Answer 7

y=-4x-7

Answer 8

well thats correct !

Answer 9

Just for the googlers....
here is the slope form of the line
y = mx + c (where , x and y are x,y coordinates respectively and c is the y-intercept)
now we have been given
m = -4
y = 5 and x = -3
just put it in above equation
that will make it
5 = -4(-3) + c
c = 5-12 = - 7
therefore equation becomes , y = -4x-7
