Answer:

y = 2x + 10

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 2 , then

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 4, 2 ) into the partial equation

2 = - 8 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 8 = 10

y = 2x + 10 ← equation of line
