Solved by pluggable solver: Find the equation of line going through points

hahaWe are trying to find equation of form y=ax+b, where a is slope, and b is intercept, which passes through points (x1, y1) = (1, -2) and (x2, y2) = (3, 4).
Slope a is .
Intercept is found from equation , or . From that,
intercept b is , or .

y=(3)x + (-5)

Your graph:

since is slope-intercept form where is a slope and is a
so, is ; point (,)

: set to find

... is ; point (,)
