## anonymous one year ago write the equation of a line that includes the points (-4,0) and a slope of (-3/5) in slope intercept form

1. pinklion23

ok so what lesson number is this

2. anonymous

3. pooja195

$\huge y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$ where m=slope (x1,y1)

4. pooja195

After that solve for y

5. anonymous

umm i don't know how to do it

6. pooja195

Ok you are given the slope (m) m=-3/5 x1=-4 y1=0 Plug it into this formula (Point slope formula) $\huge~\rm~y-0=-3/5(x-(-4)$ $\huge~\rm~y-0=-3/5(x+4)$ Now solve for y

7. anonymous

that -3/5 is actaully a fraction

8. pooja195

9. pooja195

In the formula m=slope

10. anonymous

um can i just have the answer please cause im still not understand it

11. pooja195

If you don't try you won't get it in the future I suggest you try.

12. anonymous

i have tried my notebooks right beside me

13. anonymous

give me a sec and i can help

14. anonymous

is it y=-3/5x+12/5 ?

15. pooja195

y=-3/5x-12/5 So yes you are correct but its negative... as i corrected above

thansk
