\

The line equation in slope-intercept form is $\"\"$ , where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

\

First find the slope (m).

\

Slope formulae is $\"\"$

\

$\"\"$ (Replace $\"\"$ with -2, 5, 3 and 1)

\

$\"\"$ (Subtract: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Add: $\"\"$ )

\

Slope is $\"\"$ $\"\"$

\

Next find the y-intercept (b).

\

$\"\"$ (Substitute $\"\"$ for m)

\

$\"\"$ (Substitute 3, 1 for x, y)

\

$\"\"$ (Multiply: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Add $\"\"$ to each side)

\

$\"\"$ (Apply Commutative property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Apply Additive inverse property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Apply Additive identity property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Add: $\"\"$ ) $\"\"$

\

Substitute $\"\"$ for m and $\"\"$ for b in the Slope-intercept form equation.

\

$\"\"$ $\"\"$

\

The equation in slope-intercept form is $\"\"$ .
