Answer:

y = -x + 9

Step by step explanation:

In order to write the equation of the line, we can write it in slope intercept form
y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is y intercept. Judging by the graph, we can see that the line is passing through (0,9) which makes that our y intercept.

To find the slope, we can count the slope using
(rise)/(run) or using the slope formula. For the sake of simplicity, we will count the slope, Counting the slope, we get
(-1)/(1) or simply
-1. Now we just have to plug our numbers into the formula.


y=-x+9
