Question 831985: sorry i know I'm asking alot of questions but i sent in a thing for my school to get a tutor and they haven't come yet so i was wondering how would you write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line through (-1,1) and (0,3)

i used the format m= y2-y1
------
x2-x1
to find the answer i hope you can give me an answer,Thanks

===============
Write it like this:
Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
Then find the slope, usually called m.
