find an equation for the line that contains the point (3,5) and has slope m=-4.
\n" ); document.write( "Express the equation in slope-intercept form. This is slope intercept form: \"highlight%28y=mx%2Bb%29\", where m=slope and (0,b)=y-intercept.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "You have a point and a slope and need the equation of the line, use the Point slope formula: \"highlight%28y-y1=m%28x-x1%29%29\", where m=slope and (x1,y1) is the given point.
\n" ); document.write( "m=-4 and (x1,y1)=(3,5)
\n" ); document.write( "\"y-5=-4%28x-3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y-5=-4x%2B12\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y-5%2B5=-4x%2B12%2B5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28y=-4x%2B17%29\"
