I'm not too sure how I would figure this one out...

Miracrown (miracrown):
Well, we can see that the provided equation has the slope -1/4
so, the only question is whether the line contains that point.
We can discover that by plugging in the x and y values of the point
and seeing if we get a true statement
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@Miracrown So without a graph how do I figure that out?

plug in (-3,5) into the equation y=-1/4 x-4
to see if the equation holds
OpenStudy (freckles):
you will know if it is true if you get the same number on both sides of the equation
OpenStudy (freckles):
if you don't get the same number on both sides then it is like totally false
