Use the graph to answer the question
(0, 2)
(1, -1)
Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.
______
First, we need to find the slope of the line using the two points given.
Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Slope = (-1 - 2) / (1 - 0)
Slope = -3 / 1
Slope = -3
Now that we have the slope, we can use one of the points to find the y-intercept.
Using the point (0, 2):
y = mx + b
2 = -3(0) + b
2 = b
Now we can write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form:
y = -3x + 2
