Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) First, find the slope of the line. Use the slope formula
to find the slope. Substitute the x and y values of the given points into the formula and solve:

Thus, the slope is
.
2) Now, use the point-slope formula, or
to write the equation of the line in point-slope form. Substitute values for
,
, and
.
Since
represents the slope, substitute
for it. Since
and
represent the x and y values of one point on the line, choose any one of the given points (either one is fine, the equation will represent the same line) and substitute its x and y values into the formula as well. (I chose (-4, 4) as seen below.) Make sure to simplify the double negatives to positives. This gives the following answer in point-slope form:
