y=2-4xy=2−4x

Explanation:

We need to find the slope of the line. To do this we use the following
m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}m=y2−y1x2−x1

Plugging in the points we are given we get
m=\frac{-6+2}{2-1}=-4/1=-4m=−6+22−1=−41=−4

We can use point-slope form to find the equation
y-y_0=m(x-x_0)y−y0=m(x−x0)
y+2=-4(x-1)y+2=−4(x−1)
y+2=-4x+4y+2=−4x+4
y=2-4xy=2−4x
