Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  7x +9y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of the equation for a line is ...

  ax +by = c

where a, b, c are mutually prime integers and a > 0.

We can get this form by multiplying the equation by 9, adding 7x+27.

  y - 3 = -7/9(x +4)

  9y -27 = -7x -28 . . . . . multiply by 9, eliminate parentheses

  7x +9y = -1 . . . . . . . . . add 7x+27 to both sides
