What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (4,7) and has a slope of -1/4

Sagot :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

since you are given the slope and a point....

use point slope formula y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y - 7 = -1/4 (x - 4)

then get that into the slope intercept form , use the  formula  y = mx + b as your target

y -7 = -1/4x +1

y =  -1/4x +1 +7

y = -1/4x + 8      that's  your answer
