a line has a slope of -3/4 and passes through the point (-5, 4). what is the equation of the line?

Answer:
y = -3/4x-1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope intercept form of a line is
y = mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = -3/4x +b
We have a point (-5,4)
4 = -3/4 (-5) +b
Changing to a common denominator
16/4 = 15/4 +b
subtracting 15/4 from each side
16/4-15/4 = -15/4 +15/4 +b
1/4 = b
y = -3/4x-1/4
