mat is the point-slope equation of a line with alope -3 that contains the point
A.y-4--3(x-8)
By+4=3(x-8)
ay+4=3(x+8)
Dy-4=3(x*8)

Answer 1

y = -3x + 20.

Explanation:

The correct point-slope equation of a line with slope -3 that contains the point (8,-4) is:

y - (-4) = -3(x - 8)

Expanding the right-hand side:

y + 4 = -3x + 24

Subtracting 4 from both sides:

y = -3x + 20

Therefore, the answer is not given in any of the options provided. The correct equation is y = -3x + 20.
