What is the equation of the line that passes through points #(1,4)# and #(3,2)#?
How do you write it in slope-intercept and general form?

Explanation:
Since the question speaks of a line, we assume that this is a linear function that follow the generic equation
This system can be solved by two ways. I'm going show it using the substitution method, but the additive method works as well. Therefore, isolate either
Then substitute it in the other equation:
Since
Notice that the negative sign of
