Answer:

y = - x - 2

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

calculate m using the slope formula

m =
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 4) ← 2 points on the line

m =
(-4=1)/(2-(-3)) =
(-5)/(2+3) =
(-5)/(5) = - 1

the line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 2 ) ⇒ c = - 2

y = - x - 2 ← equation of line
