plug in two values for and find
x | y
0 | 0
1 | -1
now you have points (0,0) and (1,-1); plot them on a graph and draw the line through

hahaWe are trying to find equation of form y=ax+b, where a is slope, and b is intercept, which passes through points (x1, y1) = (0, 0) and (x2, y2) = (1, -1).
Slope a is .
Intercept is found from equation , or . From that,
intercept b is , or .

y=(-1)x + (0)
