Answer:


y=-2x+6

Explanation:

Slope-intercept form is given as
y=mx+b, where
m is slope and
b is the y-intercept.

To find the slope of a line that passes through two points
(x_1, x_2) and
(y_1, y_2), use the slope formula:


m=(\Delta y)/(\Delta x)=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

Let:


(x_1, y_1)\implies (1, 4)\\(x_2, y_2)\implies (0, 6)

The slope of the line that passes through these two points is:


m=(6-4)/(0-1)=(2)/(-1)=-2

Now substitute
m=-2 and any point to solve for
b:


y=mx+b,\\6=-2(0)+b,\\6=0+b,\\b=6

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of a line that is represented by the table is
\boxed{y=-2x+6}
