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) = (2, -1) and (x2, y2) = (6, 3).
Slope a is .
Intercept is found from equation , or . From that,
intercept b is , or .

y=(1)x + (-3)

Your graph:




the slope of the line passing through points (2, -1) and (6, 3) is
