Answer:
y = -1/2 x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Which of the following equations describes the line shown below? Check all
that apply.
(-4, 4)
(2, 1)
The standard equation of a line is y = mx,+b
m is the slope
b is he y-inttercept
Get the slope
Slope m = y2-y1/x2-x1
Substitute the coordinate
M = 1-4/2-(-4)
M = -3/6
M = -1/2
Substitute m= -1/2 and (2,1) into y = mx+b
1 = -1/2(2)+b
1 = -1+b
b = 1+1
b=2
Get the equation
Recall y =mx+b
y = -1/2 x + 2
