Question 995328
the standard form of the equation for a line is y = mx +b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
*******************************************************************************
we are given m = -3/5 and point (-4, 0)
y = (-3/5)x + b
multiply both sides of = by 5
5y = -3x + 5b
use point (-4, 0)
0 = 12 +5b
b = -12/5
equation for your line is
y = (-3/5)x - 12/5
multiply both sides of = by 5
5y = -3x -12
**************************************************
3x +5y = -12
answer is b.
