Respuesta :

Answer:

  y = 5x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

slope m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

              = (-12 - 3) / (-1 - 2)

              = (-12 - 3) / (-1 - 2)

              = -15 / -3

          m = 5

y-intercept using slope above and anyone point, let's use (-1, -12):

y = mx + b

-12 = 5(-1) + b

-12 = -5 + b

b = -7

Equation of line using m and b from above:

y = mx + b

y = 5x - 7
