You can put this solution on YOUR website! what is the equation of the line that has a slope of 4 and passes through the point (3,-10)?
--------------------------
The equation that you need to find is y = mx + b where m is the slope and (0,b) is the y-intercept.
The slope is given which is m = 4 and a point (3, -10)
Then you can use slope-point equation (review your textbook)
y - yo = m(x - xo) where (xo,yo) is the given point
y - (-10) = 4(x - 3)
y + 10 = 4x - 12
y = 4x - 22
This is the line that you need to find!John10
