Answer 1

Answer:

y = -3x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find the slope first using the formula $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

Insert any two points in the equation (1,5) and (2,2) and you get -3.

Then, you do any x value times the slope (1*-3 = -3) and add so that it equals the corresponding y value (8).

This makes it y = -3x + 8.
