Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert to the slope-intercept form (y = mx + b):

y - 2 = -(x + 1)              use the distributive property

y - 2 = -x - 1             add 2 to both sides

y - 2 + 2 = -x - 1 + 2

y = -x + 1

We only need two points to plot the graph of the linear function.

Select any two x values. Insert them into the equation.

Calculate the value of y.

For x = 1:

y = -1 + 1 = 0 → (1, 0)

For x = 0:

y = -0 + 1 = 1 → (0, 1)
