Find a point-slope form equation for the line through the point with the given slope.
-$$( - 4 , - 3 ) , \mathrm { m } = - \frac { 1 } { 11 }$$
A) $y + 3 = - \frac { 1 } { 11 } ( x - 4 )$
B) $y - 3 = - \frac { 1 } { 11 } ( x + 4 )$
C) $y + 3 = - \frac { 1 } { 11 } ( x + 4 )$
D) $y - 3 = \frac { 1 } { 11 } ( x - 4 )$

The point-slope form of a line is $y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$. Substituting the point $(-4, -3)$ and slope $m = -\frac{1}{11}$, we get $y + 3 = -\frac{1}{11}(x + 4)$.
