Express the equation in point slope form and ax + (or) - by= + (or) - c
---- I don't see what this part has to do with it. You can find it with the following:
With slope -1/3 passing through (-2,-5)
y-y1 = m*(x-x1)
y - (-5) = (-1/3)*(x - (-2))
3*(y+5) = -x-2
3y+15 = -x-2
x+3y = -17
--------
In slope-intercept form:
y = (-1/3)x - 17/3
