Question

A line passes through the point(8,-6) and has a slope of-5/4 . Write an equation in point-slope form for this line.

Answer 1

Answer:

y+6 = -5/4(x-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope form of the equation of a line is

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line

y --6 = -5/4 ( x - 8)

y+6 = -5/4(x-8)
