Slope-intercept form y=mx +c where m is the slope.
You are told that the slope is -4, so the equation muct be like
y = -4x + c
That rules out one of your choices.
Now, of the other two, the equation must be true for the point (1,2).
So which of these is true?
2 = -4 * 1 + 6
2 = -4 * 1 + 9
and then you have your answer!
