Question

Equation that has a slope of -4 and passes through the point (-2, 2) show work too

Answer 1

y=-4x-6

Explanation:

y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Slope is given as -4, so:

y=-4x+b

To find b, sub in the point we were given (-2,2):

2=-4(-2)+b

2=8+b

b=2-8=-6

So we have: y=-4x-6
