Step-by-step explanation:
Since there is no y-intercept, you start at the origin (0, 0)
The slope tells us that for every two units it goes down, it also goes one unit to the right
We know this because slope is rise/run (in this case -2/1) and the slope is negative, meaning that it starts higher up at the left and goes down towards the right.
To graph, start at (0, 0) and go down 2 units to get (0, -2) and then to the right one unit to get (1, -2)
That is the first point
Continue doing this
(1, -2) -> down 2 and to the right 1 -> (2, -4)
Alternatively, plug in values for x
y = -2(1) -> y=-2
When x=1, y=-2
And keep repeating until you get a good idea of what the line looks like
