Find an equation for the line with the given properties. Express the equation in​ slope-intercept form.
Slope= -5. containing the point (7,-4)

Answer :

Answer:

or, y + 4 = m (x - 7) + c is the given equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the slope of the equation = -5

⇒m = -5

The given point is (7, -4)

⇒[tex](x_{0}, y_{0}) = (7,-4)[/tex]

Now, the general form of the equation is :

[tex]y - y_{0}  = m(x - x_{0}) + c[/tex]  : c = arbitrary constant

So, the given equation becomes

[tex]y - (-4)  = m(x - 7) + c[/tex]

or, y+ 4 = m (x - 7) + c is the given equation.

Here, m = the slope of the equation.
