Answer:

  • y = -4/3x + 2

Explanation:

Use two points from the graph:

  • (0, 2) and (3, -2)

Slope intercept formula:

  • y = mx + b

y-intercept is b = 2 as per the first point

Slope is found using slope formula:

  • m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
  • m = (-2 - 2)/(3 - 0) = -4/3

So the equation is:

  • y = -4/3x + 2
