Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

here m = - [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex], hence

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (- 3, 5) into the partial equation

5 = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] + c ⇒ c = [tex]\frac{17}{4}[/tex]

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{17}{4}[/tex] ← equation of line
