You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find an equation in the form y = mx + b
through (5, -1); slope = 2/3
------------------------
You have the form and you are told the values of x,y, and m.
Solve for "b":
-1 = (2/3)*5 + b
-1 = (10/3) + b
b = -13/3
---------------
EQUATION:
y = (2/3)x-(13/3)
--------------------
