Answer: y=2x+2

Explanation:

slope-intercept form: y=ax+b

----------------------------------------

#1 Find the slope

- Use rise/run to find the slope: 8/4=2

- Use slope formula: (2-(-6))/(0-(-4))=8/4=2

#2 Find the y-intercept

- Given the point (2, 0) it is already the y-intercept which is 2

----------------------------------------

a=2

b=2

y=2x+2
