Given points: (9,2) & (10,-5)
where

Via Slope-Point Form,
, answer



*If you want to see the graph, let's check the intercepts.

Via Slope-Intercept Form,
Thru point (9,2):

---> , y-Intercept

Another point (10,-5),(should be the same):

---> , y-Intercept

We let Fy=0, to get x-Intercept:

---->
, x-Intercept


Therefore, your Line Eqn ----> y=-7x+65

Having

From y-Intercept (0,65):

Next point,
X:
Y:
(1,58)

Next point,
X:
Y:
(2,51)

Next point,
X:
Y:
(3,44)

You can do the other points, and from what we gathered we'll see the graph,


----> Slope in GREEN dots

Thank you,
