1) Let's write a Linear model, i.e. a linear function that describes the behavior of the line that intercepts those points (-4, 6), (-6, 8)
2) So let's start by finding the slope
So the slope is m=-1
3) Now let's find the linear coefficient (b), by picking one of those points and plugging into the linear formula:
6=-1(-4)+b
6=4+b Flipping it
b=6-4
b=2
4) So the linear model, is y=-1/5x +2
