Step-by-step explanation:
The point-slope of an equation of a line:
m - slope
We have the slope m = 71 and the point (-2, 4).
Substitute:
The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:
Convert:
<em>use the distributive property</em>
<em>add 4 to both sides</em>
The standard form of an equation of a line:
Convert:
<em>subtract 71x from both sides</em>
<em>change the signs</em>
The general form of an equation of a line:
Convert:
<em>add 146 to both sides</em>
