slope = m = (3 – 1) / (-2 + 3) = 2

y – 1 = 2(x + 3)

y = 2x + 7

or slope = m = (-3 – 1) / (-2 + 3) = -4

y – 1 = -4(x + 3)

y = -4x – 11

Depending on which two points are correct. The first assumes (-3,1) (-2,3). The second assumes (-3,1), (-2,-3)

No — what you need is the slope intercept form …

y = mx + b

and remember … slope is the change in Y over the change in X

Let us assume here, x1=-3, x2=2

y1=1, y2=-3

equation of line is y-y1=(y2-y1/x2-x1)*x-x1

y-1=(-3-1/2+3)*x+3

(y-1)=-4/5*(x+3)

5y-5=-4x-12

5y=-4x-7

y=-4/5*x-7/5

So, i expect that it is the correct answer, which will solve your problem,

Best of Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(-3,1) (-2,-3)

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

m=(-3-1)/(-2-(-3))

m=-4/(-2+3)

m=-4/1

m=-4

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-1=-4(x-(-3)

y-1=-4x-12

y=-4x-11
