(-3,4) and (2,5)
-3-2=-5 (calculate run)
4-5=-1 (calculate rise)
m=-1/-5=1/5 (rise/run=slope)
y=mx+b (finding y intercept; you can choose other point's domain and range too)
5=2/5+b
b=23/5

SLOPE=(5-4)/(2-(-3)) OR SLOPE=1/2+3 OR SLOPE=1/5
SOLVING FOR THE INTERCEPT WE USE THE LINE FORMULA Y=mX+b OR 4=1/5(-3)+b OR
4=-3/5+b OR 4+3/5=b OR b=4.6 THUS THE EQUATION FOR THIS LINE IS Y=1/5X+4.6
