\huge\text{Solution:}

Hi there!

We are given the slope of the line and its y-intercept.

So, we can easily identify the equation of the line.

The equation of the line is usually written in slope-intercept form.

Slope-Intercept Form looks like this:


\fbox{y=mx+b}

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

In this case, the slope is -4.4, and the y-intercept is 6.8, so all we need to do is plug in -4.4 instead of m and 6.8 instead of b:


\longmapsto
\fbox{y=-4.4x+6.8} (Answer)

Hope you find it helpful.

Feel free to ask if you have any doubts.
