Question

HELP PLEASE:

Answer 1

Y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 2/5
(-4,-7)....x1 = -4 and y1 = -7....pay attention to ur signs
now we sub
y - (-7) = 2/5(x - (-4)...not done yet
y + 7 = 2/5(x + 4) <===

Answer 2

Answer:

Correct option is:

y+7=2/5(x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the line with slope m and passing through the point (x1,y1) is given by:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

Here, we are given line with slope m=2/5

and passing through (x1,y1)=(-4,-7)

i.e. x1= -4 and y1= -7

$y-(-7)=\dfrac{2}{5}(x-(-4))$

$y+7=\dfrac{2}{5}(x+4)$

Hence, Correct option is:

y+7=2/5(x+4)
