What is the equation (in slope-intercept form) of a line that passes through the point (3, -2) and has a slope of -2?

y = 2x + 4

y = -2x + 4

y + 2 = -2(x + 3)

2x + y + 4 = 0

The second equation has a slope of -2 and passes thru the point (3,-2)

lets put this into point slope form, than solve for slope intercept.
y-(-2) = -2(x-3)
y+2 = -2x+6
y = -2x+4
