Answer:

C. y = -1/2 + 2

Explanation:

First, we need to find the Slope.

Points: ( -4,4) and (8,-2)

Formula: m = y2 - y1/x2 - x1

m = y2 - y1/x2 - x1

m = -2 - 4/8 - (-4)

m = -6/8 + 4

m = -6/12

m = -1/2

Alright, now that we have the Slope, we can now use the Slope Form to find the Slope Intercept Form.

Point: (8,-2) (You may choose any points, but I would like to choose these for no reason)

Slope: -1/2

Formula: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - (-2) = -1/2(x - (8))

y + 2 = -1/2x + 4

y = -1/2 + 4 - 2

y = -1/2 + 2

The Slope Intercept Form is: y = -1/2 + 2
