Answer:

y = - 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

here m = - 2 . then

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (2, - 4 ) into the partial equation

- 4 = - 4 + c (add 4 to both sides )

0 = c

y = - 2x + 0 , that is

y = - 2x ← equation of line
