Explanation:

We are given the co-ordinates,

x : -2, -1, 0, 1, 2

y : 8, 5, 2, -1, -4

According to the graph, we see that this function represents a straight line.

The general form of the straight line is y = mx + c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

So, taking any two points we will find the equation of the straight line.

Consider, (0,2) and (1, -1). Now, slope is given by,

m =
(-1-2)/(1-0)

i.e. m = -3

Now, we will find the y-intercept of this equation using (0,2) and m = -3,

i.e. y = -3x + c

i.e. 2 = c

Hence, the equation of the straight line is y = -3x + 2.
