Write an equation of the line that passes through the point (–4, 6) with slope –4.

y = - 4x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 4 , thus

y = - 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 4, 6) into the partial equation

6 = 16 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 16 = - 10

y = - 4x - 10 ← equation of line

y = -4x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the slope intercept form of a line

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -4x +b

Substituting the point in

6 = -4(-4) + b

6 = 16+b

Subtract 16 from each side

-10 =b

The equation is

y = -4x+10

i think the answer is b
