Which point lies on the line described by the equation below? y + 4 = 4(x - 3)

Hello mate!

The line is described by y + 4 = 4(x - 3)

if we isolate y in the left side, we can write it as:

y = 4(x -3) - 4 = 4x - 12 - 4 = 4x - 16

this means that the points are of the form:

(x, y(x)) = (x, 4x - 16)

then, given the value of x, you can find the point that lies in the line; for example when x = 3, y = 4*3 - 16 = -4

then the point (3, - 4) lies on the line described by the given equation.
