Answer:

y=-1x-2

Explanation:

First find the slope by using the formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). Choose the 2 intercepts to calculate the slope. replace the y's and x's with your points so it would look like this or this: (-2-0)/(0-(-2)) or 0-(-2))/(-2-0). They both give the same slope which is -1. Then, since the graph tells us the y-intercept(when the x is equal to 0), we replace it with b to get y=-1x-2.

Answer:

y = -x - 2

this is because the m is the slope and the b is the intersection of the y axis
