Answer 1

The slope-intercept form of the line is y = - 2x - 5.

What is the slope of a line?

A line's slope is determined by how its y coordinate changes in relation to how its x coordinate changes. y and x are the net changes in the Δy and Δx coordinates, respectively. Consequently, it is possible to write the change in y coordinate with respect to the change in x coordinate as m = Δy/Δx.

Given that the slope of the line is -2.

The line passes through the point (2,-9).

The equation of line that passes through (x₁, y₁)  with slope m is

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁).

y - (-9) = -2(x -2)

y +9 = -2x + 4

y = -2x - 5
