y = -2x + 7
y = -2x + 5
y = 1x + 7
y = -2x + 9

Answer:

[tex]y=-2x+9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a line in point slope form is equal to

[tex]y-y1=m(x-x1)[/tex]

In this problem we have

[tex](x1,y1)=(1,7)\\m=-2[/tex]

substitute

[tex]y-7=-2(x-1)[/tex]

Convert to slope intercept form

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

[tex]y-7=-2x+2[/tex]

[tex]y=-2x+2+7[/tex]

[tex]y=-2x+9[/tex]
