Explanation:

the equation of the line shown in the graph is

2x+y-4=0

there are two points given so

(x-1)/(4-1)=(y-2)/(-4-2)

(x-1)/3=(y-2)/-6

(x-1)=3(y-2)/-6

(x-1)=(y-2)/-2

-2(x-1)=(y-2)

-2x+2=y-2

y+2x-2-2=0

y+2x-4=0

Y=-2x+4

-2x is going to be the slope
4 is going to be your y-intercept
