Answer:

y = -2x+1

Explanation:

We can find the slope of the function by using the equation

m =(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

We will use the points (3,-5) and (4,-7)

= (-7--5)/(4-3)

= (-7+5)/(4-3)

= (-2)/1

-2

We also know the y intercept ( when x=0 y=1) is 1

If we know the slope and the y intercept, we can use the slope intercept form of the equation of a line

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -2x +1
