Answer:

y = -3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

-1 - 8 / 1 - (-2)

-9/3

= -3

y = -3x + b

-1 = -3(1) + b

-1 = -3 + b

2 = b

Answer:

a. y = -2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope by plugging the points into the slope formula, $\frac{-7+5}{7-6}$ , which equals -2. Then use the slope and the point (7,-7) to make an equation in slope-point form. y+7=-2(x-7), finally solve for y to get y=-2x+7.
