Answer:
4y+x-3=0
Explanation:
The equation is y=mx+b
1) Use the coordinates from the first point
(-1,1)
1= -m+b
2) Use the coordinates frm the second point
(-5,2) (y=mx+b, use x=-5, y=2)
2=-5m+b
You have the system of equations
1=-m+b (multiply by -1) -1= m-b
2=-5m+b
Add the first equation (multiplied by -1) and the second one
-1+2= m-b-5m+b
1= -4m
m=-0.25
2=1.25+b
b=0.75
y=-0.25x+0.75
4y= -x+3
4y+x-3=0
