Answer:

The equation in the slope-intercept form will be:

y=-\frac{5}{4}x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • slope = m = -5/4
  • point = (8, -9)

As we know that the equation of a line in point-slope form is

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

substituting the values m = -5/4 and point = (8, -9)

y-\left(-9\right)=\frac{-5}{4}\left(x-8\right)

y+9=\frac{-5}{4}\left(x-8\right)

Writing the equation in slope-intercept form

y=mx+b

where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept

so the equation of the line in slope-intercept form becomes

y+9=\frac{-5}{4}\left(x-8\right)

subtract 9 from both sides

y+9-9=\frac{-5}{4}\left(x-8\right)-9

y=-\frac{5}{4}x+1

Therefore, the equation in the slope-intercept form will be:

y=-\frac{5}{4}x+1
