You seem determined to resist learning how to do them.
Tutoring is not doing them for you, it's showing you how to do them.
Make an effort.

the slope–intercept form y+=+mx+%2B+b, or the form x+=+c.

(-5,4); m=+%283%2F2%29
y+=+mx+%2B+b...plug in x and y value from given point, and slope
4+=%283%2F2%29%28-5%29+%2B+b
4+=-15%2F2+%2B+b
8%2F2+%2B15%2F2+=b
23%2F2+=+b


so, your equation is: y+=%283%2F2%29x+%2B+23%2F2
