Given that a line with slope (m)=-3 and passing though (-3,5) We know that a line with slope m and passing though (x1,y1). Point-slope form is yy1=m(xx1) and slope-intercept form is y=mx+c So here m=-3 (x1,y1)=(3,5) Point-slope form is y5=3[x(3)] y5=3[x+3] For slope-intercept form we will simpliry this y5=3(x+3) y5=3x9 y=3x9+5 y=3x+4
