Question

Use slope-intercept form to write an equation of a line passing through the given point and having the given slope. Express the answer in standard form. P(-4,-9); m= -3/4

Answer 1

Answer:

4y = -3x - 48

Step-by-step explanation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y1 = -9 x1= -4 m = -3/4

y -(-9) = -3/4(x -(-4)

y + 9 = -3/4(x + 4)

y + 9 = -3/4x -12/4

multiply through by 4

4y + 36 = -3x -12

4y = -3x -12-36

4y = -3x -48 in the form y = mx + c
