To write this equation, you need use the formula y=mx+b.

m represents the slope and b represents the y intercept.

The y intercept is the point where the line touches the y axis. In this case, the y-intercept is 1.

The slope is just rise over run from one coordinate to another. The slope is 2/-1 which could be simplified as -2. The slope just means that we are going up 2 and left 1 to get to a new coordinate.

The equation is y=-2x+1

Have a good day! :)
