Question

Write the equation of the line that passes

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope is -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula:

$\displaystyle \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{rise}{run}$

$\displaystyle \frac{(-9)-(-5)}{1-0}=\frac{-4}{1}=-4$

Therefore, the slope is -4, and the correct answer is -4.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Don’t worry you’ll eventually get the hang of it once you keep trying!

So first use this formula: y2-y1/x2-x1
Then you’ll get your slope! = -4

Second choose a point and plug it into the point-slope formula: y-y1=m(x-x1)

Then solve and you get> y=-4x-5
In slope-intercept form: y=-4x-5
