Answer:

y = -2/4x -5

Explanation:

Assuming that the answer will be in slope intercept form, and not standard form. It would go a little like this:

Finding the slope:

y2 - y1/x2 - x1

-6 - (-4) / 2 -(-2)

-6 + 4 / 2 + 2

-2/4

Simplifying further, the slope would be: -1/2

The slope would be -1/2.

Now, checking desmos, the equation would be: y = -2/4x -5.
