Question 1096850
<font color="black" face="times" size="3">Point Slope form in general is {{{y - y[1] = m(x - x[1])}}} 

where,
m = slope
(x1,y1) = a point the line goes through


In this case, 
m = -5/6
(x1,y1) = (8,-4) meaning that x1 = 8 and y1 = -4


----------------------------------------------


So,
{{{y - y[1] = m(x - x[1])}}}


{{{y - y[1] = expr(-5/6)(x - x[1])}}} Plug in the given slope m = -5/6


{{{y - y[1] = expr(-5/6)(x - 8)}}} Plug in the x coordinate of the given point (x1 = 8)


{{{y - (-4) = expr(-5/6)(x - 8)}}} Plug in the y coordinate of the given point (y1 = -4)


{{{y + 4 = expr(-5/6)(x - 8)}}} Rewrite {{{y-(-4)}}} as {{{y+4}}}


----------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------


The final answer is {{{y + 4 = expr(-5/6)(x - 8)}}} which is <font color=red>choice B</font>
