Answer:
y = 0.9x - 0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
First you use the formula m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
Sub in the 2 points you are given and you get m = (-8-1) / (-8-2)
m = -9/-10 = 9/10
Now u use the point slope formula, (y - y1) = m(x - x1)
Sub in the points and you get (y - 1) = 9/10 (x-2)
Expand it out to get y - 1 = 9/10x - 18/10
multiple everything by 10 = 10y - 10 = 9x -18
make y the subject, 10y = 9x - 8
y = 0.9x - 0.8
