What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (4,0)(4,0) and has a slope of -\frac{3}{4}− 4 3 ​ ?

Answer 1

You will use the point-slope formula: y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

Remember m is slope, so m = - 3/4 (*Unless that is not the value you meant to type; just plug in the given slope and solve)

y - 0 = - 3/4 (x - 4)

Distribute and simplify:

y = -3/4x + 12/4 = -3/4x + 3
