Answer:

Explanation:

to find the slope you do,
m=y{2}-y{1}/x2-x1\\ m=16/-4\\ m=-4\\The new equation is going to be y=-4x+b, to find b you plug one of the points you are given and solve for b.
-6=-4(1)+b\\-6=-4+b\\-2=bthe you use the info and you should get y=mx+b, which in this case is y=-4x-2

Hope that helps for the other one.
