Answer:


y=-2x+2

Explanation:

  • Firstly we need to find the gradient
  • We can do this with
    (\triangle y)/(\triangle x) (
    (change\ in\ y)/(change\ in\ x))

  • (2--6)/(0-4)

  • (8)/(-4)=-2
  • So far we have
    y=-2x+c
  • Choose one of the pairs of coordinates
  • I’ll choose (0,2)

  • 2=c
  • So your equation is
    y=-2x+2
