Answer:

y = -4x - 2

Explanation:

Look at point (0, -2).

When x = 0, y = -2. The y-intercept = b = -2.

y = mx + b

y = mx - 2

Now we use two points to find the slop, m.

Use points (0, -2) and (-2, 6)

m = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)

m = (6 - (-2))/(-2 - 0)

m = 8/(-2)

m = -4

The slope is -4.

The equation is

y = -4x - 2
