Answer:
y = - x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 9, 6)
m = =
= -
, hence
y = - x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (- 9, 6), then
6 = 3 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 3 = 3
y = - x + 3 ← in slope- intercept form
