The point-slope form of the equation of a line is given by
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
where (x1, y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope of the line.
In this case, the point (-4, 8) lies on the line and the slope is 1. Plugging these values into the point-slope form, we have
y - 8 = 1(x - (-4))
y - 8 = x + 4
y = x + 12
Therefore, the equation of the line that passes through the point (-4, 8) with slope 1 is y = x + 12.
Use point-slope form to write the equation of a line that passes through the point (-4,8) with slope 1.
