Determine the equation of each line. Write the answer in standard form using only integers as the coefficients. The line through (-2,0) with slope -3/4\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I have a couple of things worked out on this. I am really confused on this. This is what I have:
\n" ); document.write( "m=-3/4 points (-2,0)
\n" ); document.write( "x=-3/4y-2
\n" ); document.write( "4*(3/4 + x)= -2*4
\n" ); document.write( "3y+4x=-8 *************** That won't work.
\n" ); document.write( "=================================\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "and I also tried it this other way by plugging in the information I had:
\n" ); document.write( "y=mx+b
\n" ); document.write( "0=-3/4(-2)+b
\n" ); document.write( "0=6/4+b
\n" ); document.write( "-6/4=b
\n" ); document.write( "y=-3/4x-6/4
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "This is correct.
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-3/4)x - 3/2 (slope-intercept form)
\n" ); document.write( "Get rid of fractions, multiply by 4
\n" ); document.write( "4y = -3x - 6
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 4y = -6 in \"standard form\"\r
