Question 640610: My book says: write an equation in standard form Ax + By=C of the line that satisfies the given conditions. Use integer values for A,b,c.
Then the problem is: m=4/5, passes through(2,3)
Here's what i did but i didn't and can't solve it to find the right answer.
y-3=4/5(x-2)
y-3=4/5x-8/5
that's all i really got

y-3 = 4/5x-8/5
5y-15 = 4x-8 ... Multiply EVERY term by LCD by 5.
5y = 4x-8+15
5y = 4x+7
5y-4x = 7
-4x+5y = 7
-1(-4x+5y) = -1*7
4x - 5y = -7
So the answer is 4x - 5y = -7
