Answer:

One equation would be y= -1.5x +11

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's a table to show the coordinates

x:             y:

8              -1

-------------------

-4             17

the x coor. 8  goes down by 12 to get to the next x coor. -4.

8-12= -4

the y coor. -1 goes up by 18 to get to the next y coor. 17.

-1+18= 17

therefore 18/-12 is -1.5 which can be your k in y=kx+b.

Check your answer.

-1.5*8= -12 but when you add 11, you get the y coor. -1

Do the same with the other x coor.

-4*-1.5= 6 + 11 =17

11 can be your b in the slope-intercept form equation.

One equation may be y = -1.5x +11
