Answer 1

\(y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\)

Where y1 is the y-value, x1 is the x-value, and m is the slope.

Answer 2

So just replace y1 with -4, x1 with 8, and m with -5/6.

What do you get?

None of these have negative 4 @iGreen.

Answer 4

Yes, but look:

\(y - y_1\)

Plug in -4:

\(y - (-4)\)

Multiply -1 into the parenthesis, -1 * -4 = 4.

\(y + 4\)

Get it?:

Answer 5

oh right i forgot okay so, y+4= 8(x - -5/6)

Answer 6

So what's your answer going to be? @AMYCARTER

Answer 7

that equation is not one of the answer choices though @iGreen.

Answer 8

That's just part of it..and you did it wrong..-5/6 doesn't go there it goes in the middle..and 8 goes over there.

Answer 9

yeah that's what i was just going to say thank you @iGreen.

Answer 10

No problem.
