Slope :-

... [tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

Point slope form :-

... [tex]y1 - y2 = m ( x1 - x2 )[/tex]

Slope intercept form :-

... [tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Slope :-

... [tex]\frac{-1-4}{0-(-2)}[/tex]

... [tex]\frac{-5}{2}[/tex]

... [tex]-2.5[/tex]

Point-slope :-

...  -1 - y = -2.5 ( 0 - x )

___________________________________________________________________

Slope-intercept :-

... y = -2.5x + b

... 4 = 5 + b

... b = -1

........ y = -2.5x - 1
