Question 935295: write the equation of the line that contains the
indicated point(s), and/or has the given slope or intercepts; use
either the slope–intercept form y = mx + b, or the form x = c.
(0, 4); m = -3

Do it like this one:
==================================
find the equation of the line passing through
the given point with the given slope. Write the final answer in the
slope–intercept form y = mx + b.
(-2, -3); m = -1/2
-----------
y - y1 = m*(x - x1) where m is the slope, (x1,y1) is the point
---
y + 3 = (-1/2)*(x+2)
You can change the form.
-----
PS Don't put a space after the comma in points, eg (-2,-3)
