1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
y +3 = 1/2(x +4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is given by the formula ...
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (1 -(-3))/(4 -(-4)) = 4/8 = 1/2
The point-slope form of the equation for a line is ...
y -y1 = m(x -x1)
Filling in the known values, this is ...
y -(-3) = 1/2(x -(-4))
y +3 = 1/2(x +4)
