m=2,b=-1
Find the value of b using the formula for the equation of a line.
y=mx+b
Replace the known value of m in the slope y-intercept form of the equation.
y=(-1)*x+b
Replace the known value of b in the slope y-intercept form of the equation.
y=(-1)*x+(2)
Simplify the slope y-intercept form of the equation.
y=-x+2
