Answer:

y = -4/3x -1

Explanation:

y = slopex + y-int

We can find the slope -4/3 by going down 4 times to the level of the second point from the first point. Then we go to the right 3 times to get to the 2nd point.

y = -4/3x + b

The spot on the line where x is 0 will be the y-intercept

In this case it is -1

y = -4/3x - 1
