Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

The 1 is the y-intercept

The -2 is the slope

First place a point at (0,1)

Then, because it's negative from left to right the graph is decreasing (going lower on the y-axis the farther you go on the x-axis).

Slope is rise over run so the -2 affects how far it goes. So for each value of x that increases by one, a new point will be two units down and one unit right of the previous point. To graph to the left of the y-intercept then you do that backwards where the next point is two units up and one unit left.


Then just draw a straight line connecting all the points.
