Answer:

y = 3x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope (m)

m = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-1-5}{0 - (-2)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-6}{2}[/tex] = -3

y = mx + b

y = 3x + b

(-2,5)

y = 3x + b

5 = 3(-2) + b

5 = -6 + b

+ 6  + 6

11 = b

y = 3x + 11

Check:

(-2,5)

y = 3x + 11

5 = 3(-2) + 11

5 = -6 + 11

5 = 5

Hope this helps!
