Answer:

The slope is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope. which is the change in y over the change in x is given by

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

    = (2--4)/(-3-0)

    = (2+4)/(-3-0)

    = 6/-3

    = -2

Answer:

y = -2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

As we go from (0, -4) to (-3,2), x decreases by 3 and y increases by 6.  Thus, the slope is m = rise / run = 6/(-3) = -2.

The equation of the line is y + 4 = -2(x - 0), or
