Answer: (-5, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

(-4, 0)

Here, -4 is our x value and 0 is our y value

The x value moves horizontal (left and right) while the y value moves vertical (up and down)

If we move 1 unit left, we change x by -1 so, -4 -1 = -5

If we move 5 units down, we change y by -5 so, 0 -5 = -5

Therefore,

our new endpoint is: (-5, -5)

What is the point and slope of the line represented by the equation below y-4=-5(x+3)

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The slope is -5.
The point is (-3, 4)
The formula for point slope form is
y-y1=m(x-x1) where y1 and x1 are the coordiantes of the point and m is the slope.
This shows that the y coordinate is positive and the x coordinate is negative.
May seem counterintuitive. So just flip signs that you see in formula to make the actual point if you are confused.
