The slope point form is

m is the slope
x1, y1 are the coordinates of a point on the line
The slope of the line is -1
m = -1
point (-5, -4) lies on the line
x1 = -5 and y1 = -4
Let us substitute them in the form above

Remember (-)(-) = (+)

The equation of the line in the slope-point form is y + 4 = -1(x + 5)
Answer: By adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing both sides until you are left with the variable on its own. Don't multiply or divide by a variable unless you know it is always positive or always negative.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
A = ½(b1 + b2)h
A = (3 + 5)(3)/2
A = 12
