Write an equation in point slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope; (8, -3); m= -(1)/(4)

Question

Write an equation in point slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope;

(8, -3); m= -
`(1)/(4)`

Answer 1

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = -1/4
(8,-3)...x1 = 8 and y1 = -3
now we sub
y - (-3) = -1/4(x - 8) =
y + 3 = -1/4(x - 8) <==
