Find the equation of the line with the given slope and containing the given point.
Slope -9/10; through (-9,0) Must be in slope-intercept form.

Step 1. The slope intercept form is given a y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept at point (0,b).

Step 2. Let

Step 3. To find b, let x=-9 and y=0 since the point (-9,0) lies on the line.

Step 4. ANSWER. The equation is

I hope the above steps were helpful.
