Answer:

x + y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of the line use the point slope form. Then convert to the standard from. Begin by substituting m = -1 and (-2,6).

$y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y - 6 = -1(x --2)\\y - 6 = -1(x+2)\\y - 6 = -x -2\\x + y - 6 = -2\\x + y = 4$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is of the form

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportionality

To find k use the slope formula

k = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 16) ← 2 points on the line

k = $\frac{16-0}{2-0}$ = $\frac{16}{2}$ = 8
