Answer:

y = - 2x + 4

Explanation:

Assuming you require the equation of the line.

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 2, thus

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 1, 6) into the partial equation

6 = 2 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 2 = 4

y = - 2x + 4 ← equation of line
