Write an equation in standard form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope m
-4=1/2(-15)+b

The equation in standard form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope and is x – 2y = - 7

Solution:

Given that, We have write an equation in standard form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope "m"

Given equation is,

 ---- eqn 1

Here, if we observe the above given equation it is in the form of the slope – intercept form, i.e. y = mx + c

Where "m" is the slope of line and "c" is the y-intercept

So, now by comparison we get,

Which means that, line is passing through (-15, -4) at a slope of

Now, solve (1) for intercept,

Plugging in m = 1/2 and (x, y) = (-15, -4) we get,

Then, the line equation in slope intercept form will be

Rearranging the terms to get standard form,

hence, the line equation in standard form is x – 2y = - 7
