Answer:

y= -2x+7

Here,

Two points given: (3,1) and (7,-7)


slope(m) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = ( - 7 - 1)/(7 - 3) \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = ( - 8)/(4) \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = - 2 \\

Equation of line is y= Mx+b

y= -2x +b

It passes through (3,1)


1 = - 2(3) + b \\ 1 = - 6 + b \\ - b = - 6 - 1 \\ - b = - 7 \\ b = 7

Equation of line:

y= -2x+7

Hope this helps..

Good luck on your assignment..
