Answer:
y=-3/5x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
Pick any two points the line goes through.
I picked
(0,4) and (5,1)
There are a few ways to do this but ultimately, it’s the same concept. I will use slope-intercept form which for me was always easier.
y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis which in this case is point (0,4) so the b=4.
To find the slope, use rise/run between the two points you chose. Point (5,1) is 3 units UNDER point (0,4) so now we have -3/run because -3 is the “rise”. After you count down 3 units always go right. After going right 5 units, you touch point (5,1). So the “run” is 5. Which means that the slope is -3/5.
m=-3/5 and b=4
So the equation is:
y=-3/5x+4
Hope this helps!!
