Answer:

y = - 4x + 2

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 )

Here m = - 4, thus

y = - 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 1, 6) into the partial equation

6 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 4 = 2

y = - 4x + 2 ← equation of line

160 square inches

if the block is cut after it’s been painted, two sides with the same measurements don’t have glitter on them. you find the area of the one rectangle and multiply it by 2 as follows:
A = length • width
A = 10 • 8 = 80
area that needs to be covered = 80 • 2 = 160 square inches
