(4, 2) and
(5, -3) m =%28y%5B1%5D+-+y%5B2%5D%29%2F%28x%5B1%5D+-+x%5B2%5D+%29 = 5/-1 = -5
.....
***Using point-slope form, y+-+y%5B1%5D+=+highlight_green%28m%29%28x+-+x%5B1%5D%29P(4,2)
y - 2 = -5(x-4)
y = -5x + 22 Points (0,22) and (4,2) on this line. Plot and connect with line.
0r 5x + y = 22 in Standard Form
