Answer:
y = (-1/2)x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
Where m = slope and b is the y intercept
Let's find the slope = change in y/change in x
m = (4-2)/(-6+2) = 2/-4 = -1/2
Now we have:
y = (-1/2)x + b
Now substitute point (-6,4)
4 = (-1/2)(-6) + b
4 = 3 + b
b = 1
So y = (-1/2)x + 1 is the equation.
