Answer:

C. y - 3 = -2(x - 4)

Explanation:

The equation of the line can be written in point-slope form as y - b = m(x - a),

Where,

m = slope

(a, b) = coordinates of a point on the line.

Find slope (m) using the points (4, 3) and (5, 1)


slope (m) = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1) = (1 - 3)/(5 - 4) = (-2)/(1) = -2

m = -2.

Substitute a = 4, b = 3, and m = -2, into y - b = m(x - a), the equation that best fits the graph would be:

✔️y - 3 = -2(x - 4)
