SUPER EASY AND BRAINLIEST!!!!!

Find the equation, in standard form, of the line that passes through ( 4 , 0 ) and has slope -1 / 3. Graph the equation.

Answer:

x+3y =4

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for a line is Ax +By =C

We have a point and a slope.  Use point slope form to get the line and then transform it to standard form

Point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where (x1.y1) is the point and m is the slope

Substituting in the point and the slope

y-0 = -1/3(x-4)

y = -1/3 (x-4)

Multiply each side by 3 to get rid of the fraction

3y = 3*(-1/3 (x-4))

3y = -(x-4)

Distribute the minus sign

3y = -x +4

Add x to each side

x+3y = x-x+4

x+3y = 4

This is in standard form
