Graph the line with the given point and slope .
The line through (-2,5) with the slope -1.
------------------------
Form: y = mx + b
5 = -1(-2) + b
b = 3
-----------------------
Equation:
y = -x+3
---
Plot two points and draw a line thru them:
If x = -2, y = 5 (Given)
---
If x = 0, y = 3
---
Plot the two points (-2,5) and (0,3)
