Find an equation for the line with the given properties Expr

Find an equation for the line with the given properties. Express the equation in slope-intercept from. Slope = -9; containing the point(6, -8) What is the equation of the line? y = (type your answer in slope-intercept from.)

Solution

slope m = -8 and points (6, -8)

slope intercept form of equation : y = mx +c

y = -8x +c ---> -8 = -8*6 +c

c = 40

y = -8x +40
