Question

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line through point J(4,1) with a slope of -4.

please

Answer 1

The point-slope form is y - b = m(x - a) where m is the slope and (a, b) is a point that the line passes through. All you need is to remember that equation, then you can substitute into it with the numbers you know.

The equation would be y - 1 = -4(x - 4)
