<h2>Answer:</h2><h3><em>
y = -1x - 9</em></h3><h2>Explanation:</h2>
First, we’ll need to find the <u>slope</u>.
(-5,-4) (-2,-7)
m =
m = 
m =
m = -1
Next, substitute these values into the <u>point slope equation:</u>
y -
= m(x -
)
y - (-7) = -1(x - (-2))
y + 7 = -1(x + 2)
Now, convert to <u>slope intercept form (y = mx + b):</u>
y + 7 = -1x -2
-7 -7
y = -1x - 9
The points where a graph crosses the x- and y-axis are called the _x- and y- intercepts, respectively_.
I think it’s C, good luck
