The equation of the line in slope intercept form is y =-4x - 29 where m = -4 and b = -29
Equation of a line
A line is defined as the shortest distance between two points. The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is expressed as;
y = mx + b
where
m is the slope
b is the intercept
Given the following parameters
Slope = -4
Point on the line = (-8, -3)
Write in point slope form
y - (-3) = -4(x -(-8))
y+3 = -4(x + 8)
Expand to have;
y+3 = -4x - 32
y = -4x - 32 + 3
y = -4x - 29
Hence the equation of the line in slope intercept form is y =-4x - 29 where m = -4 and b = -29
