The area of the figure is square units.

The figure is made up of a rectangle and a triangle.

Area of the rectangle = 2 x 3 = 6 units²

Area of the triangle = 1/2 x 2 x 2 = 2 units²

Total Area = 6 + 2 = 8 units²

  8 units²

Abit confused about what you mean, but i think you might be referring to slope intercept form: y = mx + bin that case b, or the y intercept is already given.(0,-1)find the slope by using the formulay2 - y1/x2 - x1the final slope will be 4/2, equivalent to 2.now your equation should look like thisy = 4/2x -1sorry if this didn’t you out!
