Question 848073
There are two ways to do this. Depends on what form you want.

Let's put this in point-slope form.

{{{y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)}}}

{{{highlight(y+22 = -5(x-4))}}} <--- this is perfectly acceptable

If you wanted to go further you could solve for y:

{{{y+22 = -5x + 20}}}

{{{y = -5x -2}}}  

However if you had to put it into slope-intercept I prefer this method:


y = mx +b

-22 = -5*4 + b

-2 = b

{{{y = -5x -2}}}
