To find the linear equation, we first need to calculate the slope (m) using the formula:
m = (Y2 - Y1) / (X2 - X1)
Using the points (-4, 10) and (6, -5):
m = (-5 - 10) / (6 - (-4))
m = -15 / 10
m = -1.5
Now that we have the slope, we can use the point-slope form of a linear equation:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Using the point (-4, 10):
y - 10 = -1.5(x + 4)
y - 10 = -1.5x - 6
y = -1.5x + 4
Therefore, the linear equation is y = -1.5x + 4.
