Question

Need SLOPE-INTERCEPT FORM ASAP

Answer 1

Answer:

y = - $\frac{7}{4}$ x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 7)

m = $\frac{-7-0}{0-(-4)}$ = $\frac{-7}{0+4}$ = - $\frac{7}{4}$

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 7 ) ⇒ c = - 7

y = - $\frac{7}{4}$ x - 7 ← equation of line
