Answer is y = 1.4x - 4.8

Step by step

We know coordinates (2, -2) and we know “m” slope is 1.4

Your formula is
y - y1 = m (x - x1)

Substitute your y and x and m values

y - -2 = 1.4(x - 2)

distribute

y + 2 = 1.4x - 2.8

Subtract 2 from both sides to isolate y

y + 2 - 2 = 1.4x - 2.8 -2

Combine and your answer is

y = 1.4x - 4.8
