Answer:

y-6 = -2(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the slope

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

   = (-2-6)/(3--1)

    = (-2-6)/(3+1)

     = -8/4

    = -2

Then we can point slope form where

y -y1 = m(x-x1)

where m is the slope and x1,y1 is a point

y-6 = -2(x--1)

y-6 = -2(x+1)

Answer:

y - 6 = -2(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: (-2-6)/(3--1)

= -8/4

= -2

y - 6 = -2(x - -1)

y - 6 = -2(x + 1)
