Point-slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Using (9, −6) and m = −5/4:
y - (−6) = −5/4 (x - 9)
So:
y + 6 = −5/4 (x - 9)
You can also write it in slope-intercept form:
y = −5/4 x + 21/4
Using (9, −6) and m = −5/4:
y - (−6) = −5/4 (x - 9)
So:
y + 6 = −5/4 (x - 9)
You can also write it in slope-intercept form:
y = −5/4 x + 21/4
