y = - x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m =

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 1)

m = = = - 1, thus

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (4, - 1 ), then

- 1 = - 4 + c ⇒ c = - 1 + 4 = 3

y = - x + 3 ← equation of line
