Answer:

f(x) = -5/9x - 11/9

Explanation:

Consider f(x) = y

so if x = -4 => y = 1 and x = 5 => y = -4

so (-4,1) and (5,-4) should be on the same linear equation

Slope m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (-4 - 1)/(5 - -4) = (-5)/(9) = -5/9

y = mx + b

given m = -5/9, x = -4, y = 1

1 = -5/9(-4) + b

b = 1 - 20/9

b = 9/9 - 20/9 = -11/9

so y = -5/9x - 11/9

or f(x) = -5/9x - 11/9
