Name a point on the line and give the slope from the following equation: Put the point in parentheses with a comma. (x,y). No space. y + 7 = -4(x + 2)

Answer 1

(-2,-7) is a point on the line. slope =-4

or

(0,-15) slope is the coefficient of the x term, when the equation is solved for y

y+7 = -4(x+2)

y=-4x-8-7

y =-4x -15 -4=slope, -15 = y intercept

let x=0, then y=-15 that's the point (0,-15)

let x=-2 then y=-7 that's the point (-2,-7)
