(3,5) and (9,6)
Slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=(6-5)/(9-3)=1/6 ans.
Y=mX+b
5=1/6*3+b
5=3/6+b
5-1/3=b
b=15/3-1/3
b=14/3 Y intercept.
Y=X/6+14/3
(graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 10, x/6 +14/3).

Let the point A be (3, 5)
and point B be (9, 6)
The slope of the line is given by
AMP Parsing Error of [= (6-5)/(9-3)]: Invalid expression '=(6-5)/(9-3)': syntax error at /home/ichudov/project_locations/algebra.com/templates/Algebra/Expression.pm line 203. .

The equation of a straght line is given by
y = mx + c where m is the slope.
Thus the equation becomes

Lets put x = 3 and y = 5 in the above equation.

Thus he equation of the straight line joining the two points is given by
