<h2>Answer:   y - 5 =  - 4 (x - 4)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of a line is (y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)

Since we know the slope (m) is -4

And the point  ( x₁, y₁ ) is (4, 5)

Then we can just plug these into the equation above:

                               ⇒  y - 5 =  - 4 (x - 4)

<em>I often use Desmos to check my answer. As seen below, the equation does pass through the point (4, 5).</em>

Find an equation for the line below.<br><br><br> will give brainiest
pogonyaev

Answer: y=-\frac{x}{2}-6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First find slope m. From observing the equation we can see that there are two points on the line. They are (-5,-4) and (-1,-6). Using the formula to find slope rise/run we get m = -0.5.

Now we use the point-slope formula to start the switch to the slope-intercept formula. Using (-1,-6) as our x and y values and switching m=-0.5 we get y + 6 = -0.5 ( x + 1). Simplify and we get y + 6 = -x/2 - -0.5. Subtract 6 from both sides and the final equation is y = -x/2 - 6.5.
