Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's how you solve this problem:

1. Solve for the slope in between the two points using (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

For this problem that would be: (5-11)/(4+2), so the slope would be -1

2. Put that slope in a slope-intercept form equation and solve for the y-intercept.

Slope-Intercept Form: y=mx+b

y=-x+b

To solve for the y-intercept, use one of the coordinate pairs and input x and y.

11=-(-2)+b

9=b

3. Put that y-intercept back in the equation: y=-x+9
