Write an equation of the line that passes through each point with the given slope.
(-3,-4) ,m=3
a. y=3x+13
b.y=3x-5
c.y=-3x+5
d.y=3x+5
??
The general equation for a sraight line is in the form
y=mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. You are given m, Plug -3 in for x and -4 for y and 3 for m. Then calculate b. Knowing b will allow you to enter b in the general form of
y = mx + b and that should be one of the answers.
