A line has a slope of

To write the equation of a line in point-slope form, you can use the formula:

\[ y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) \]

where \( m \) is the slope and \((x_1, y_1)\) is a point on the line.

Given:

• Slope, \( m = -\frac{1}{9} \)
• Point, \((x_1, y_1) = (8, 3)\)

Plugging in these values into the point-slope formula:

\[ y - 3 = -\frac{1}{9}(x - 8) \]

So, the equation of the line in point-slope form is:

\[ y - 3 = -\frac{1}{9}(x - 8) \]
