asked • 02/10/20Need help with slope intercept of a line passing through a fraction
My homework question is to fine the slope-intercept of a line with a slope of -4/5 and passing through the points (7, -6). I understand that the point slope form of this question is y+6 = -4/5(x-7). But when it comes time to simplify into y = mx+b form I don't understand how to do it? I get subtracting 6 from both sides, but how do you multiply a -4/5 with -7 and then subtract another 6 from it?
