Hello!

To write an equation for this line, you must follow these steps:

1. M= Slope (-2/3)
2. X1= -9
3. Y1= 1
4. First, take the equation y - y1 = m(x - x1)
5. Plug the values into the equation
6. Y - 1 = -2/3(x - (-9))
7. Change the sign
8. Y - 1 = -2/3(x +9)
9. Distribute the -2/3
10. Y - 1 = -2/3x - 6
11. Add 1 to both sides
12. Y = -2/3x - 5

This gives you a final answer of y = -2/3x -5 (note that this equation is in slope intercept form)

Hope this helps!

Here’s a graph of a linear function. Write the equation that describes that function
inessss [21]

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = 1/4x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, start with two points that are on the line. We'll use (0, -4) and (4, -3). Now we can use the slope formula to find the slope.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (-4 - -3)/(0 - 4)

m = -1/-4

m = 1/4

Now that we have this, we can use that slope and a point in point-slope form. Then we solve for y to get the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - -4 = 1/4(x - 0)

y + 4 = 1/4x

y = 1/4x - 4
