Answer:
y = - 3x + 4
Explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 2) ← 2 points on the line
m =
=
= - 3
Note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 4) ⇒ c = 4
y = - 3x + 4 ← equation of line
