Question

Graph the line with slope -1 passing through the point (-1,-4)

Answer 1

Answer: look at pic

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

m:slope

b:y-intercept

m=-1 (slope) given in the question

y=-1x+b

Plug in the given point (-1,-4) then solve for b

-4=-1(-1)+b

b=-5

y=-x-5

then using the x-intercept and y-intercept you could graph the line

y-intercept = b = -5 (0,-5)

x-intercept (plug in y=0)

0=-x-5

x=-5 (-5,0)
