The point-slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

We have the slope m = 4 and the point (-1, -3). Substitute:

$y-(-3)=4(x-(-1))\\\\\boxed{y+3=4(x+1)}$

About Point Slope Form:

Y- Y1 = m (x -X1)
m is the slope
Y1 & X1 is a point on the line
The form allows you to identify the slope & the point on the line

Y - 3 = 4 (x - -1)

Answer:

If you mean he starts at 1 on the Y axis (vertical line), then the answer is (1, 3). If you mean he starts at 1 on the X axis (horizontal line), then the answer is (0, 4)

A ramp slopes from a warehouse door down to the street. The height of the ramp is 5 feet, and the ramp ends 10 feet from the bas

Tomtit [17]

If you graph this, your first point will be at (0,5), as the ramp is at the warehouse door but 5 feet up. The second point is (10,0) as it is touching the ground but it's 10 feet away from the warehouse.
To find slope, you do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).
When substituting in the variables, you get (0-5)/(10-0), which is -5/10, which is simplified to -1/2. Of course, that is when the warehouse is Quadrant II. If you look at it from another point of view, the slope will be positive so your answer is A) 1/2.
