Answer:
y = 1/2 x -2
Step-by-step explanation:
rise/run from (-6, -5) to (-4, -4) = 1/2
(rise 1, run 2)
meaning that slope (m) = 1/2
we can now rewrite our points in y=mx + b formatting:
y = mx + b
-5 = (1/2)(-6) + b
-4 = (1/2)(-4)+b
now, let's solve for b
-5 = (1/2)(-6) + b
-5 = -3 + b
-2 = b
-4 = (1/2)(-4)+b
-4 = -2 + b
-2 = b
So, the equation for our line is y = x- 2
hope this helps!! have a lovely day :)
