Answer:

y - 1 = - 4(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Here m = - 4 and (a, b) = (- 3, 1), hence

y - 1 = - 4(x - (- 3)), thus

y - 1 = - 4(x + 3) ← in point- slope form

Answer:

y-1=-4(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A line has a slope of -4 and the line passes through a point (-3, 1).

To find: The point-slope form of this line.

Solution:

We know, the point-slope form of a line can be given as

y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1} )

Here, m is the slope of the line, and (x_{1}, y_{1}) is the point through which it passes.

The slope of the line is -4, and the point is (-3, 1).

So, m=-4, x_{1} =-3, and y_{1} =1.

Now, putting the values in the equation, we get

y-1=-4(x-(-3))

y-1=-4(x+3)

Therefore, the point-slope form of the line is y-1=-4(x+3).

Answer:

  x = 10 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratios of corresponding sides are the same, so we have ...
