Answer:
Slope-intercept form: Given the slope m and the y-intercept b the equation of a line can be written y = mx + b. Point-normal form: We can also ...

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Line JK passes through points J(-4,-5) and K(-6, 3).
Line JK has form of y = mx + b
=> -5 = -4m + b
=> 3 = -6m + b
Subtract 2nd equation from 1st equation:
=> -8 = 2m
=> m = -4
Substitute back m = -4 into 1st equation:
=> -5 = -4(-4) + b
=> b = -21
Hope this helps!
