Question

Graph the line for y + 1 equals -3/5 parentheses x subtract 4 parentheses​

Answer 1

Answer:

The graph is shown below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Equation of a line is $y+1=-\frac{3}{5}(x-4)$

The equation of a line with a point $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and slope $m$ is given as:

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

On comparing the given equation with the standard form, we get

$x_{1}=4,y_{1}=-1,m=-\frac{3}{5}$

Now, we first plot the point $(4,-1)$.

Slope is $-\frac{3}{5}$. This means that we have to move 3 units down and 5 units right to get the slope as negative. We mark the second point there.

Now, we plot a line joining both the points. Thus, the graph is drawn.
