Question 720584
( -2,4 )
( 0,-2 )
Use the general point-slope formula
{{{ ( y -(-2) ) / ( x - 0 ) = ( 4 -(-2) ) / ( -2 - 0 ) }}}
{{{ ( y + 2 ) / x = 6 / (-2) }}}
{{{ y + 2 = x*(-3) }}}
{{{ y = -3x - 2 }}}
---------------
check:
( -2,4 )
{{{ y = -3x - 2 }}}
{{{ 4 = -3*(-2) - 2 }}}
{{{ 4 = 6 - 2 }}}
{{{ 4 = 4 }}}
----------
( 0,-2 )
{{{ -2 = -3*0 - 2 }}}
{{{ -2 = -2 }}}
OK
