Question

Write the point-slope equation oft line that goes through (1, -1) with slope of -5.​

Answer 1

y+1=-5(x-1)

Explanation:

We need to find the slope intercept form first. So far we have this: y=-5x+b. We could plug in the x value and y value to get this : -1=-5(1)+b. b=4. Now we have the slope intecept form: y=-5x+4, and we could turn it into point slope form.
