Question

Find the equation of a straight line passing through the point (-1,1) with y-intercept -4​

Answer 1

Answer:

see the explanation beta.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, a line equation passes through point (2,−5) and makes a y- intercept of −3

We know that,

The equation of line is y=mx+c, where m is the slope and c is the y intercept

So, we have

y=mx−3

Now, this line equation will satisfy the point (2,−5)

−5=m(2)−3

−5=2m−3

2m=3−5=−2

⇒m=−1

Hence, the equation of the line is y=−x+(−3)⇒x+y+3=0
