Known
x1 = 6
y1 = 2
x2 = (-6)
y2 = (-8)

Question
Equation of the line (y = mx + c)
════════════════════
Way to do
#First, you find the gradient (m)
[tex]m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{(( - 8) - 2)}{(( - 6) - 6)} = \frac{( - 10)}{( - 12)} = \frac{5}{6} [/tex]
#Now use the formula of equation of the line
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 2 = ⅚(x - 6)
y - 2 = ⅚x - 5
y = ⅚x - 5+2
y = ⅚x - 3
