Answer: y = -x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

   See attached for some more information on slope-intercept form.

   We will create an equation with the given slope, plug the set of coordinate points in, and solve for our b variable.

y = -1x + b

-4 = -1(2) + b

-4 = -2 + b

-2 = b

   This means the equation is;

y = -x - 2

    We can also check our work by graphing. See attached.
