Answer:

y = -2x +2

Explanation:

y = mx + b

m = slope

y2 - y1/x2 - x1 = m

Using two points, plug in the x values and y values into the equation to find slope.

(0, 2) (1, 0)

2 - 0/0 - 1 = 2/-1 = -2

m = -2

y = -2x + b

b = y-intercept

The y-intercept is the number that crosses through the y axis with an x value of 0.

(0, 2)

b = 2

y = -2x + 2
