Answer:
first option
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 =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 4 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 4 )
m =
=
= - 4 , then
y = - 4x + c ← is the partial equation
to find substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
using (1, 4 ) , then
4 = - 4 + c ⇒ c = 4 + 4 = 8
y = - 4x + 8 ← equation of line
