Answer:
first point: (-6, -1)
second point: (-2, -2)
Explanation:
Compare the equation given to the "slope-intercept" form:
y +1 = -1/4(x +6)
y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
We see that k = -1, m = -1/4, h = -6.
So, the equation tells us the given line has a slope of -1/4 and goes through point (-6, -1).
The slope of -1/4 means that the line will have a change in y of -1 when the change in x is 4. So, we can find another point by adding (4, -1) to the point we already know is on the line: (-6, -1).
Second point: (-6, -1) +(4, -1) = (=6+4, -1-1) = (-2, -2).
First and second points could be (-6, -1) and (-2, -2).
