The point-slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points $(-4,\ -1)$ and $\left(\dfrac{1}{2},\ 3\right)$ .

Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{3-(-1)}{\frac{1}{2}-(-4)}=\dfrac{4}{4\frac{1}{2}}=\dfrac{4}{\frac{9}{2}}=4\cdot\dfrac{2}{9}=\dfrac{8}{9}\\\\y-(-1)=\dfrac{8}{9}(x-(-4))\\\\y+1=\dfrac{8}{9}(x+4)$

The standard form: Ax + By = C

$y+1=\dfrac{8}{9}(x+4)\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 9}\\\\9y+9=8(x+4)\qquad\text{use distributive property}\\\\9y+9=8x+32\qquad\text{subtract 9 from both sides}\\\\9y=8x+23\qquad\text{subtract 8x from both sides}\\\\-8x+9y=23\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\\boxed{8x-9y=23}$
