Write an equation of the form y = mx for the line shown below. If appropriate, use the decimal form for the slope.

y = - 0.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m =

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 1) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = = - 0.5

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 0 ) ⇒ c = 0

y = - 0.5x + 0 . that is

y = - 0.5x

i believe the answer is 323 ft
