You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(-1,-3) and (3,3)
Use the general point-slope formula:

+%28+y+%2B+3+%29+%2F+%28+x+%2B+1+%29+=+%28+3+%2B+3+%29+%2F+%28+3+%2B+1+%29+
+%28+y+%2B+3+%29+%2F+%28+x+%2B+1+%29+=+6%2F4+
+%28+y+%2B+3+%29+%2F+%28+x+%2B+1+%29+=+3%2F2+
Multiply both sides by +2%2A%28+x%2B1+%29+
+2%2A%28+y+%2B+3+%29+=+3%2A%28+x+%2B+1+%29+
+2y+%2B+6+=+3x+%2B+3+
+3x+-+2y+=+3+
----------------
check:
does it go through (-1,-3)?
+3x+-+2y+=+3+
+3%2A%28-1%29+-+2%2A%28-3%29+=+3+
+-3+-%28+-6+%29+=+3+
+-3+%2B+6+=+3+
+3+=+3+
does it go through ( 3,3 )?
+3x+-+2y+=+3+
+3%2A3+-+2%2A3+=+3+
+9+-+6+=+3+
+3+=+3+
OK
