Find a point-slope form for the line with slope 1/5 and passing through the point (-4,-9).

y + 9 = (x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Here m = and (a, b) = (- 4, - 9) , thus

y - (- 9) = (x - (- 4) ) , that is

y + 9 = (x + 4)

if x decreases by 4 then y increases by 10
