M = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (3 + 2)/(-1 - 4) = 5/-5 = -1
y+-+y1+=+m%28x+-+x1%29

grade 10th problem 20:
WRITE THE EQUation of the line passing through each of the given pairs of points. write the result in slope-intercept form,if possible.
(-1,3)=(X1,Y1) and (4,-2)=(X2,Y2)
EQN.OF LINE IS
(Y-Y1)/(Y2-Y1)=(X-X1)/(X2-X1)
(Y-3)/(-2-3)=(X+1)/(4+1)
Y-3=-X-1
Y=-X+2........SLOPE=-2..INTERCEPT=2
