Answer:

The answer is


y = - 5x - 2

Explanation:

❃Incase you forgot what the linear equation formula is ☟


y = mx + b

❃Incase you also forgot, The is what the slope formula is ☟


m = (y_2 - y_1 )/(x_2 - x_1)

➊ First: We are going to be solving for the slope.


m = ( - 2 - 3)/(0 - ( - 1)) = ( - 5)/( \: \: \: 1) = - 5

➋Second: We find the y-intercept.


y = mx + b \\ 3 = - 5( - 1) + b \\ 3 = 5 + b \\ ( - 5 = - 5 \ \ \: \: \: \: \: \: )/( - 2 = b)

➌Third: Plug in.


y = - 5x - 2
