Question 439256: Write the point-slope form of an equation that passes through the given points: (0,5) and (4,0).
A. y-5=5/4x
B. y-5=-5/4x
C. y=-5/4(x-5)
D. y=5/4 (x-5)
Addition details: I've figured out that the slope is 5/4. So I am pretty sure the answer is either A or D. Thank you to whoever can help with this problem!
