Answer 1

Answer:

y = - 2x - 4

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 = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 8) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{-8-4}{2-(-4)}$ = $\frac{-12}{2+4}$ = $\frac{-12}{6}$ = - 2

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 4 ) ⇒ c = - 4

y = - 2x - 4 ← equation of line
