Answer:

y = - 2x - 5

Explanation:

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 , then

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

to find c substitute (- 4, 3 ) into the partial equation

3 = 8 + c ⇒ c = 3 - 8 = - 5

y = - 2x - 5 ← equation of line
