What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (8,3) and has a slope of -1/4 ​ ?

Answer 1

slope -1/4, line through (8,4)

y=-x/4 +b where b=y intercept, plug in x=8, y=4 and solve for b

4= -8/4 +b

b= 4+2 = 6

y= -x/4 +6 is the line with slope =-1/4 through (8,4)

slope = the coefficient of the x term, when the linear equation is solved for y
