The equation of the line with slope -3 that goes through the point (-9,-7) can be written in the form y=mx+b where m is:
and where b is:

y= -9x-25

Step-by-step explanation: Write the slope-intercept form of an equation of the line with slope -9 and passes through the point (-2, -7).

--------

Form:: y = mx + b

Solve for "b"::

-7 = -9*-2 + b

-7 = 18 + b

b = -25

-----

Equation:

y = -9x - 25

point slope formula

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+7= -9(x+2). Notice that we are subtracting a negative, so we have to add.

y+7=-9x-18

y= -9x-25

what

you ignore the remainder, therefore the answer is y = x+2

step-by-step explanation:

you have to divide the denominator by the numerator. you can use synthetic division or long division.

[-5] .     1 .     7 .     11

x + 2 + 1/x+5
