Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
since you are given two points use the point- slope formula and the slope formula
y-y1 = m( x -x1) and m = y2 -y1 / x2 - x1
find the slope m, 1st
p1 = (x1,y1) given (-8,-2)
p2 = (x2,y2) given (-4,-6)
m = -6-(-2) / -4-(-8)
m = -6+2 / -4+8
m = -4 / 4
m = -1 :)
now use the slope you just found and the point-slope with either given point.. pick one.. which ever seems easier... they seem about the same to me
y - (-8) = -1(x-(-2))
y+8 = -1(x+2)
y+8 = -x-2
y = -x-2-8
y= -x-10
and your done :)
