Y = -3/8x - 7....add 3/8x from both sides
3/8x + y = -7 ...multiply both sides by 8
3x + 8y = - 56 <==

Find the equation of a line that passes through the point (3,1) and has a gradient of -3. Leave your answer in the form y = m x

Bingel [31]

Answer:

$y = (-3)\, x + 10$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The question requires that the equation should be in the slope-intercept form $y = m \, x + c$ . The $m$ and $c$ in this equation are constants. In particular:

$m\!$ would represent the slope of this line (also known as the gradient of this line,) whereas
$c$ would be the $y$ -intercept of this line.

The question states that the slope of this line is $(-3)$ . Therefore, $m = -3$ . Thus, the equation for this line should be in the form $y = (-3)\, x + c$ .

The value of constant $c$ could be found using the other piece of information: the point $(3,\, 1)$ is in this line. In other words, the solution $\text{$x = 3$ and $y = 1$}$ should satisfy the equation $y = (-3)\, x + c$ .
