Answer:

y= -2x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope-intercept form:

y= mx +c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.

Given that the slope is -2, m= -2.

Susbt. m= -2 into the equation:

y= -2x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates.

When x= -4, y= 6,

6= -2(-4) +c

6= 8 +c (expand)

c= 6 -8 (-8 on both sides)

c= -2 (simplify)

Thus, the equation of the line is y= -2x -2.
