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, 1) and (x2, y2) = (2, 0).
Slope a is .
Intercept is found from equation , or . From that,
intercept b is , or .
y=(-0.5)x + (1)
Your graph:

so, your equation is:
and in standard form it will be
