First, find the slope of the line using the formula for slope:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

m = (4 - (-2)) / (-3 - 2) = -6/5

Then, use the point-slope formula using a point that you were given and the slope that you calculated.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 4 = (-6/5)(x + 3)

Then, simply get y alone.

y = (-6/5)x + 2/5
