Answer:
y = -2x +1

Explanation:

Slope-intercept form is written as the following:
y = mx+ b

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept

To find the slope of a line, we use the following formula:
m = (y_(2)- y_(1))/(x_(2) -x_(1) )

Using the points on the graph, the slope of the line is -2.
(You could also use the rise over run strategy to solve for slope).


We know the slope, but we still need to determine the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the point at which a line intersects the y-axis. Looking at the graph, the line intercepts the y-axis at point (0,1).


Using the slope and y-intercept, the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is
y = -2x +1.
