Question

Passes through (–4, –5), slope = –3/4

Answer 1

Answer:

y = -3x/4 - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

• Equation

               y₂ - y₁ = m(x₂ - x₁)

              y - (-5) = -3/4*(x -(-4))

                y + 5 = (-3/4)*(x + 4)

                      y = -3x/4 - 3 - 5

                      y = -3x/4 - 8

• Verification;

          y = -3x/4 - 8

          -5 = -3(-4)/4 - 8

          -5 = 12/4 - 8

          -5 = 3 - 8

         -5 = -5        ✔
