Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of line: y = mx + b
b = y-intercept
b = -2
The point (x, y)= (-3, 5)
x = -3, y = 5
We would insert the values above in the equation of line to get the slope of the equation:
5 = m(-3) + (-2)
5 = -3m - 2
5 + 2 = -3m
7 = -3m
m = 7/-3
m = -7/3
The equation of the line becomes:
y = -7/3 x + (-2)
