Answer:
The answer to your question is Equation y = -4x - 6 Slope -4
Point = (1 , -5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Point = (1 , -5)
Process
1.- Get another point from the line
-This point is B = (0, -1)
2.- Get the slope of the line
Formula
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
x1 = 1 y1 = -5 x2 = 0 y2 = -1
-Substitution
m = (-1 + 5) / (0 - 1)
-Simplification
m = 4/-1
-Result
m = -4
3.- Find the equation of the line
Formula
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
-Substitution
y + 5 = -4(x - 1)
-Simplification
y + 5 = -4x - 1
-Solve for y
y = -4x - 1 - 5
-Result
y = -4x - 6
