Y=-1/4x+8

First find the slope

Slope= y-y1/x-x1

So (6-7)/(8-4) = -1/4

Now take that slope and use one of the points and plug them into the point slope formula to solve for your y intercept.

Point slope formula: y=mx+b

So 7=-1/4(4)+b OR 6=-1/4(8)+b

Either way you’ll get b=8!

Put em together and you get: y=-1/4x+8

Ps you can double check your answer by plugging in one or both of the points into your equation to see if it works :)

What's the answer for 41
NeTakaya
Pick any negative integer you want for x. Let's say we pick x = -10. Replace x with this value. So replace x with -10

x - y = -1
-10 - y = -1

Now isolate y. We do this in two steps. First we add 10 to both sides. Then we multiply both sides by -1

-10 - y = -1
-10 - y + 10 = -1+10
-y = 9
-1*(-y) = -1*(9)
y = -9

So one ordered pair is (x,y) = (-10,-9). There are infinitely many of these ordered pairs. Another ordered pair is (-11,-10) which is found following the same steps as shown above. The only thing that matter is that x-y is equal to -1. There are infinitely many ways to subtract two values to get -1.
