Y=mx+b
41-36= -5
The difference or the slope is -5 because we are subtracting by 5.
(0,41) 41 is your y intercept
y=-5x+41

Answer:

the answer would be f(x)=-5x+41

Explanation:

you start by calculating the change in y (or f(x)) and dividing that by the change in x or y2-y1/x2-x1. the answer you should get is the slope (mx). from there you calculate the y intercept (b) by simply finding when x=0. now you put it all together, y=mx+b or f(x)=-5x+41
