Answer:

(A) y+4=-3(x+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of a line whose slope is m and passes through the point $(x_1, y_1)$ is: $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Given the point: $(x_1, y_1)=(-6,-4)$

Slope, m=-3

$x_1=-6\\y_1=-4$

Substituting these values into: $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$ , we obtain the point slope form of the equation:

$y-(-4)=-3(x-(-6))\\\\y+4=-3(x+6)$

The correct option is A.

a straight line has a equation 4x + 3y = 12 . find the gradient of the line and the coordinates of the point where this line cro

Komok [63]

4x + 3y = 12
3y = -4x + 12
y = -4/3x + 4........so the slope (or gradient) is -4/3...because in y = mx + b form, the slope(gradient) is in the m position and the y int is in the b position....so if u wanted to know the y axis, it would be (0,4)

the x intercept (where the line crosses the x axis) can be found by subbing in 0 for y in the original equation or the slope intercept equation, and solving for x.
4x + 3(0) = 12
4x = 12
x = 12/4 = 3....so the x intercept is (3,0)
