Answer:

y=-4x+17

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is [tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{9-1}{2-4}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{-2}[/tex]

-4

y=-4x+b

plug in one of the points to find b, I chose (4,1)

1=-4(4)+b

1=-16+b

add 16 to both sides

b=17

put it together and you get y=-4x+17
