Answer:
y = -2x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
[]Let us write an equation in slope-intercept form.
-> See attached
-> Our equation will start out as y = x
[] The slope can be found by taking the change in y divided by the change in x
-> [tex]\frac{-3-1}{3-1}=\frac{-4}{2}=\frac{-2}{1}=-2[/tex]
-> Now our equation is y = -2x
[] The y-intercept, or b, can be found by plugging a point given to us into the equation we have so far.
-> y = -2x + b
(1) = -2(1) + b
1 = -2 + b
3 = b
-> Now our equation is y = -2x + 3, which is our final answer.
