Question 175001
Since two points are given, you first need to find the slope (m) of the line.

This is the general formula for the slope.

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)  Substituting the actual values into the formula we have

m = (5-2)/(0-(-2))= 3/2

Now you can use the point-slope formula

(y-2)=3/2*(x-(-2))

So y = 3/2x+3+2= (3/2)x+5

As a check, substitute the value for x=0 for the other given point.

y=(3/2)*0+5=5 (Checks out OK)

I hope that this helps
