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) = (-10, 3) and (x2, y2) = (-2, -5).
Slope a is .
Intercept is found from equation , or . From that,
intercept b is , or .

y=(-1)x + (-7)

Your graph:

or, your equation is:
