Question

HELP! Write an equation in standard form that passes through points (-4,10) and (0,-5).

Answer 1

A. 15x-4y=20
B. 4x-15y=20
C. 15x+4y= -20
D. 4x+15y= -20

Answer 2

can you find the slope of the line?

Answer 3

once you have the slope, equation of line is:
\[y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\]
\[(x_1 , y_1) = (0,-5)\]

Answer 4

I'm confused.

Answer 5

How do I find the slope?

Answer 6

Hello @cheymariee , do you still need some help?

Answer 7

Yes I do.

Answer 8

you will find the slope using \[m=\frac{ y _{2}-y _{1} }{ x _{2}-x _{1} }\] just substitute you points.. so lets say that your first x coordinate is 0, and your first y coordinate is -5. the points (-4,-10) will be your second x and y coordinate...

Answer 9

\[slope = m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\]
