Question

Write the equation of the line, in point slope form that goes through the given point with the given slope. through: (-2, 5), slope = -4

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 4x+13 ( ? not sure )

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed {y - 5 = -4(x + 2)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you already have both the given slope and the given point, use the Point-Slope Formula in order to convert into Point-Slope Form:

$y - y_{1} = m(x - x-{1})$

Slope: $m$

First point: $(x_{1}, y_{1})$

-Substitute:

Slope: $-4$

First point: $(-2, 5)$

$\boxed {y - 5 = -4(x + 2)}$
