Step 1: Choose a point on the line, such as (2, 5).

Step 2: Choose another point on the line, such as (1, 3).
Step 3: Count units to determine the slope ratio. The line runs 1 unit to the right and rises 2 units up, so the slope is .
Step 4: Substitute those values into the point-slope form.

y – y1 = m(x – x1)

y – 3 = (x – 1)

Answer:

y-3=2(x-1)

Explanation:

So it looks like your line goes through (2,5) and (1,3) based on what you have said.

Looking at 5 to 3, that is down 2.

Locking at 2 to 1, that is left 1.

So the slope is -2/-1 =2/1=2.

Plug in the (x1,y1)=(1,3) and slope=m=2.

So using point slope form we have y-3=2(x-1).
