Question

Please help explanation if possible

Answer 1

Answer: y = -1x + 1

Explanation:

(choose two points on the line to find the slope)

(0,1) and (2,-1)

(slope = m)

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=(-1-1)/(2-0)=(-2)/(2) =-1`

y = mx + b, (0,1), (2,-1), m=-1

(both points work and yield the same equation)

`y=mx+b\\1=-1(0)+b\\b=1\\y=-1x+1`
