What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-1, -3) and has a slope of -5?
a) y=-5x-8
b) y=-5x-16
c) y=-5x+16
d) y=-5x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

m - slope

(x₁, y₁) - point on a line

We have the slope m = -5, and the point (-1, -3). Substitute:

Convert to the slope-intercept form (y = mx + b):

         use the distributive property

           subtract 3 from both sides

7 hours and 15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

8 - 3/4 = 7 1/4 hours
