(-2, -5) and (2, 1) have a line through them with the equation
setting slope = slope where slope is "rise over run" = difference in y values divided by difference in x values
(y-1)/(x-2) =(1- -5)/(2- -2) = (1+5)/(2+2) =6/4 = 3/2
y-1 = (3/2)(x-2)
y= (3/2)(x-2) +1
y = (3/2)x -3 +1
y = (3/2)x -2 is the equation in slope intercept form, slope = 3/2 and intercept = -2
