Answer:
y = -3/2 x +5
Step-by-step explanation:
slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m= (8--1)/(-2-4)
m= (8+1)/(-2-4)
m= (9/-6)
m=-3/2
point slope form
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y--1 = -3/2(x-4)
distribute
y+1 = -3/2x +3/2 *4
y+1 = -3/2x + 6
subtract 1 from each side
y = -3/2 x +6-1
y = -3/2 x +5
this is in slope intercept form (y=mx+b)
