Answer:

[tex]y = - 2x + 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{4 - 2}{1 - 2} = \frac{2}{ - 1} = - 2 \\ gradient = - 2 \\ \\ y = mx + c \\ y = - 2 \times 4 + c \\ - 2 = - 8 + c \\ - 2 + 8 = c \\ 6 = c \\ \\ y = mx + c \\ y = - 2x + 6[/tex]

The equation of the line has the form y=mx+b

Let's create a system of equations

[tex]\left \{ {{4=1m+b} \atop {2=2m+b}} \right. \\\left \{ {{-8=-2m-2b} \atop {2=2m+b}} \right. \\-6=-b\\b=6\\\\2=2m+6\\2m=-4\\m=-2[/tex]

the equation of the line through (1, 4) and (2, 2) is y=-2x+6
