Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Points (-1,7) and (1,3)

Formula

m = (y2 = y1) / (x2 - x1)

y2 = 7

y1 = 3

x2 = - 1

x1 = 1

Solution

m = (7 - 3) / (-1 - 1)

m = 4 / - 2

m = - 2

Now use either one of the points to get b in y = mx + b

x = 1

y = 3

m = - 2

y = mx + b

3 = -2 (1) + b

3 = -2 + b

b = 3 + 2

b = 5

Equation: y = - 2x + 5

Second question.

y = -2 + 1  

Think money. You have a dollar in your pocket, but you owe your mom 2 dollars. Where are you.

y = -2 + 1

y = - 1
