Question

Find the equation of the line that passes through (−4, 8) with slope −3. Write in slope-intercept form. F y = – 3x – 4 G y = – 4x + 3 H y = 3x + 4 J y = 4x – 3

Answer 1

Answer: y=-3x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know slope, we can plug it into slope-intercept form to find the y-intercept by using the given points,

y=-3x+b

8=-3(-4)+b

8=12+b

b=-4

Now that we know the y-intercept, we can complete the slope-intercept form.

y=-3x-4
