y = mx + b slope(m) = -1/3 use either of ur points (2,4)...x = 2 and y = 4 now sub and find b, the y int 4 = -1/3(2) + b 4 = -2/3 + b 4 + 2/3 = b 12/3 + 2/3 = b 14/3 = b
so ur equation is : y = -1/3x + 14/3....however, this is not ur answer because it is not in standard form.
y = -1/3x + 14/3 1/3x + y = 14/3....multiply both sides by 3 x + 3y = 14 <=== standard form
