Answer:
y = - 2x + 110
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 )
To calculate m use the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 110) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (20, 70) ← 2 points on the line
m = =
= - 2
the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 110) ⇒ c = 110
y = - 2x + 110 ← equation of line
