Answer:

The value of y is -16.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the missing coordinate, we can use the slope equation and plug in all known values.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

6 = (y - 2)/(4 - 7)

6 = (y - 2)/-3

Now we can solve using cross multiplication.

y - 2 = -3*6

y - 2 = -18

y = -16
