The equation used to for slope intercept form is commonly used.
y = mx + b
Let us find the y-intercept first.
The place where the line crosses the y axis is 2.
y = mx + 2
Now, find the slope.
Find two points on the line, then solve.
Alright, I found two points on the line:- (-2,8) and (2, -4)
m = -12/4
m = -3
The slope is -3. The y-intercept is 2
Lets put them into the equation
y = -3x + 2
Final answer: <span>B. y = -3x + 2</span>
