Given:
(-6, - 6)
Slope = -4/7
Determine the equation of the line.
Solution:
The equation of the line can be written in point-slope form as,
y - y1 = m(x -x1)
Substitute the given values of x1, y1, and m to the equation.
y - (-6) = -4/7(x - (-6))
y + 6 = -4/7(x + 6)
Final answer:
d. y + 6 = -4/7(x + 6)
