\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-2}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-2}-\stackrel{y1}{4}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{1}-\underset{x_1}{(-2)}}}\implies \cfrac{-6}{1+2}\implies \cfrac{-6}{3}\implies -2

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{4}=\stackrel{m}{-2}[x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-2)}]\implies y-4=-2(x+2) \\\\\\ y-4=-2x-4\implies y = -2x

Explain why one half times two equals one whole
djverab [1.8K]
Two halfs equal one whole. think of it like this, an orange cut in half leaves you with two halfs, put them together and you have a whole. simple. multiplying by 2 just means adding a number two times.
1 half plus one half= 2halves= 1 whole
1half x 2= 2 halves=1 whole

EastWind [94]
The answer is -3, because the negative sign is outside of the absolute value. If the problem looked like this |-3|, then the answer would be 3. To clarify, your answer is -3.
