Answer:

Finding slope: y2-y1/x2-x1

3-9/1+2

=-6/2

Divide 2 from both

=-3/1 or -3

Slope= -3

Finding y-intercept= y=mx+b

Choose any point on the line to plug in the x and the y then plug in the slope.

I choose (1,3)

3=-3×1+b

3=-3+b

Add 3 to both sides

6=b

Y-intercept=6

Equation: y=-3x+6
