A line passes through point (-8, -5) and has a slope of

Answer 1

Answer:

-5x+4y=20

Explanation:

A line passes through point (-8, -5) and has a slope of  5/4

Write an equation in Ax+By=C form for this line.

Use integers for A, B, and C.​

So we have a point and a line we can use the point slope formula

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-5)=(5/4)(x- -8)

y+5=(5/4)(x+8)

y=5/4x+10-5

y=5/4x+5

Then we multiply 4 both sides

4y=5x+20

-5x+4y=20
