Find the standard form of the equation with slope 4 passing through the point (-6,9)

Question

Standard form 

Answer 1

Answer: -4x + y = 33

 

Two Solutions

 

Convert Slope Intercept form to Standard Form

 

y = mx + b --> 9 = 4(-6) + b --> b = 33

 

y = 4x + 33 --> Put all variables on one side -->  -4x + y = 33

 

Can also use the point slope formula:

 

(y-y₁) = m(x-x₁) 

 

y-9 = 4(x-(-6)) --> y-9 = 4x + 24 --> y = 4x +33 --> -4x + y = 33
