Graph the line through the given point and with the given slope. (1,-3)m;-1/5
standard form of equation for a line: y=mx+b, m=slope, b=y-intercept
For given line:
slope,m=-1/5
equation: y=-x/5+b
using given point (1,-3) on the line to find b, the y-intercept
-3=-1/5+b
b=-3+1/5=-15/5+1/5=-14/5
equation: y=-x/5-14/5
