standard form where slope = -1;(0,7)
.
Plug what was given into the "point-slope" form then convert into the "standard form".
.
"standard form":
Ax + By = C
.
"point-slope form":
y � y1 = m(x � x1)
.
Plug in our given info:
y � 7 = (-1)(x � 0)
.
Now, converting to "standard form":
y � 7 = (-1)(x)
y � 7 = -1x
y = -x + 7
x + y = 7 (this is what they're looking for)
