Answer:
y = -3x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope intercept form of the equation of a line is:
y = mx + b
where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.
First, we find the slope of the line using the two given points.
m = slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (2 - (-7))/(-1 - 2) = (2 + 7)/(-3) = 9/(-3) = -3
Now we plug in the slope we found into the equation above.
y = -3x + b
We need to find the value of b, the y-intercept. We use the coordinates of one of the given points for x and y, and we solve for b. Let's use point (2, -7), so x = 2, and y = -7.
y = -3x + b
-7 = -3(2) + b
-7 = -6 + b
Add 6 to both sides.
-1 = b
Now we plug in -1 for b.
y = -3x - 1

0.56 < 0.65
or 0.56 is less than 0.65
Answer:
y=-1/2x+2
the y-intercept is at 2 and the slope is -1/2
meaning the y coordinates with move down 1 while the x coordinates will move 2 in a positive (right) direction
