Answer:
y = -7x+34
Explanation:
We have 2 points, so we can find the slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (6--1)/(4-5)
= (6+1)/(4-5)
= 7/-1
= -7
We can use point slope form to make an equation
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y--1 = -7(x-5)
y+1 = -7(x-5)
Distribute
y+1 = -7x+35
Subtract 1 from each side
y+1-1 = -7x+35-1
y = -7x+34
