C. y-3=-1/4(x-8)
D.y-3=-1/4(x+8)

Answer 1

You're plugging that point (8, -3) and that slope (-1/4) into the Point-Slope Formula. Do you know that formula?

The trick here is that you make sure you plug the x and y into the right spot AND that you remember when you subtract a negative, it changes to addition.
