The required point-slope form of the equation of the line is y - 5 = -4(x + 1).
Given that, To determine an equation in point-slope form for the line that passes through the point with the given slope. point: (-1, 5) and m=-4.
What is the slope of the line?
The slope of the line is a tangent angle made by line with horizontal. i.e. m =tanx where x in degrees.
Here,
The point-slope of the equation of the line is given by,
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
Put the values in the above equation of the line
y - 5 = -4 (x - (-1))
y - 5 = -4 (x + 1)
Thus, the required point-slope form of the equation of the line is y - 5 = -4(x + 1).
