The answer is The Multiplication or Division Principle of Equality. It states that if you multiply or divide both sides of an equation by an expression, the resulting the equation will be equivalent to the original equation.

14x = 56
x = 4 <-- Divide both sides by 14

So, x is equal to 4.<span />

Slope -4 passing through the point (5,3).

bonufazy [111]

A negative slope means the line would be going downward, so you would go down first (instead of up as with a positive slope), then over right.

Therefore, you would go down 4 (or negative 4 considering you are going down) and right 1.

Rise over run still applies here. Rise over run is a fancy way of saying to put the number (or slope) in fraction form.

-4 as a fraction would be -4/1.

So start at (5,3), go down 4 and over 1, repeatedly and you got it.

**Just remember the rise over run can be confusing with negative slopes.**
