Answer:

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

or y-4=-1/2(x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Trying 2 write a point slope equation with the given points.

The first step in getting a point slope equation, i.e. of the form (y-y1)=m(x-x1), is to find the slope.

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

m=(4-2)/(2-6)

m=2/-4=-1/2

Next, you plug in either of the points into the formula as (x1,y1).

The answer could have been either

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

or y-4=-1/2(x-2)
