Question 467842
m = 4/5, (6,-8)


Point-slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1)


y - (-8) = 4/5(x - 6) {substituted into point-slope form}
y + 8 = 4/5(x - 6) {simplified the double negative signs}
y + 8 = 4/5x - 24/5 {used distributive property}
y = 4/5x - 24/5 - 8 {subtracted 8 from both sides}
y = 4/5x - 24/5 - 40/5 {got a common denominator of 5}
y = 4/5x - 64/5 {combined like terms}
