Hi, 
Find the slope of the line through each pair of points:
*[tex \LARGE\ Using \ the \ standard \ slope-intercept \ form \ for \ an \ equation \ of \ a  \ line \ y = mx + b ] 
*[tex \LARGE\ where \ m \ is \ the \ slope \ and \ b \ the \ y-intercept]
(5,-4),
(-20,-3) m = -1/25
 y = (-1/25)x + b    ||Using Pt(5,-4) to solve for b
-4 = (-1/25)5 + b
 -19/5 = b
 y = (-1/25)x -19/5  or in standard Form: x + 25y = -95
