Answer:

Explanation:

since the line crosses the y axis at -4 we know that b in the slope intercept form is -4 . now we just need the slope.. and slope is rise over run or y/x... soooo .....

looking at the graph I see that the point (-1,4) and (0,-4) look like they are points on the graph..

soooo....

the rise is -8 when the run is 1 or -8/1 or just -8

use the slope intercept form y = mx + b

y= -8x + (-4)

y = -8x -4 :)
