5). What is the equation of line ?
Write the equation in slope-intercept form. Write the numbers in the equation as simplified proper fractions, improper fractions, or integers.

Answer:
k has the same slope = -4/3 = m, (h,k) = (-4,6)
plug those values into
y-h = m(x-k) the slope point form of the equation
y-6 = (-4/3)(x+4)
or
3y-18 = -4x -16
4x + 3y = 2
