What you want to do for each of those is follow the formula, y-y[1]=m(x-x[1]). When I say y[1] and x[1], I mean the x and y values given. So the first one would be y-4=-3(x-(-1)). Then you solve for y by distributing the -3 to x and +1 (+1 because two negatives make a positive), making the equation y-4=-3x-3. Then you subtract the 4. Answer #1. y=-3x-7.
