Answer:

See the screenshot below!

Explanation:

We have a basic y=mx+b (slope intercept, where m is the slope (rise over run, the change in y over the change in x between points) and b is the y-intercept (the point where the graph crosses the y-axis)) equation. The slope, m, is equal to -1. When the slope is 1, the 1 is unwritten and implied. The negative symbol but no other coefficient means that the slope is negative one. The y-intercept, or b, is negative 2, so the graph crosses the y-axis at -2. If we were to make a table of values, we would plug the given x-value into our equation. So, for example, if we wanted to see what y is at x=-3, we would substitute it it: y=-(-3)-2. In this case y=1.
