Answer:
y = -4x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the slope using this equation ....
y2 - y1/x2 - x2 =
plug in two ordered pairs (doesn't matter which one) ....
-2 - (-6)/1 - 2 =
-2 + 6/-1 =
4/-1 = -4
The slope is -4. The next blank is the y-intercept (0,y) ....
y = -4x + b
plug in any ordered pair ....
-2 = -4(1) + b
-2 = -4 + b
+4 +4
2 = b
Put it all together ....
y = -4x + 2
