Misty correctly determined the equation of the linear function represented by the table of values below to be y = negative 2 x + 9 in slope-intercept form by using the ordered pairs (1, 7) and (2, 5).

What would she have gotten for the equation of the linear function if she had used the ordered pairs (2, 5) and (4, 1) instead?
y = negative 4 x + 9
y = negative 4 x + 18
y = negative 2 x + 9
y = negative 2 x + 18Misty correctly determined the equation of the linear function represented by the table of values below to be y = negative 2 x + 9 in slope-intercept form by using the ordered pairs (1, 7) and (2, 5).
