Answer:
y = - x -
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 2 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 4) ← 2 points on the line
m = = -
, thus
y = - x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (- 4, 2 ), then
2 = + c ⇒ c = 2 -
= -
y = - x -
← equation of line
