Answer:

y=2x-5

Explanation:

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b, with m being the slope and b being the y-intercept.

Slope is found through (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) and when the values are plugged in you get (-3-1)/(1-3) which equals -4/-2 or 2.

y=2x+b

Since b is the y-intercept, you plug in the value of the point where the line crosses over the y axis. In this case, that value is -5, so you get y=2x-5.
