Answer:

Option A: [tex]y+7 = 25(x+4)[/tex] is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line is given by:

[tex]y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Here:

m is the slope of the line

[tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] are the coordinates of the point from which the line passes.

Now looking at the given question:

[tex]m = 25\\(x_1,y_1) = (-4,-7)[/tex]

Putting the values in the general form of point-slope form of equation of line

[tex]y-(-7) = 25\{x-(-4)\}\\y+7 = 25(x+4)[/tex]

Hence, the point-slope form of given line is:

[tex]y+7 = 25(x+4)[/tex]

Observing the option given, it can be concluded that Option A: [tex]y+7 = 25(x+4)[/tex] is the correct answer.
