Find the equation of the line that contains (-7,3) with a slope of -3/4 written in slope intercept form
------------------
Use y-y1 = m*(x-x1) where m = slope and (x1,y1) is the point.
---
Then add y1 to each side.
==============================
Here's a similar example:
Find the equation of the line that contains (-1,5) with a slope of -2/5 written in slope intercept form
----
y - 5 = (-2/5)*(x + 2)
