slope intercept form of a line that
has a slope of - and contains
(-8, -3).

4.

There are 2 ways to do these.

Method 1:

Find the slope, m.

m = diffy/diffx

m = (-5-9))/(-6-(-8)) = -14/2

m = -7

Then use either point:

y-y1 = m*(x-x1)

y-9 = -7*(x+8)

y-9 = -7x-56

y = -7x-47

Method 2:

|+x +y +1|

|-8 +9 +1| = 0

|-6 -5 +1|

x*(9+5) - y*(-8+6) + (40+54) = 0

14x + 2y +94 = 0

y = -7x - 47
