Answer:
y = 3x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
I used my calculator so that it would be faster.
But if you want work you have to find the slope then plug in.
To find the slope use points (1, -2) and (2, 1) use this formula [tex]\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}[/tex]
Plug the points in [tex]\frac{1 - -2}{2-1} =\frac{3}{1} = 3[/tex]
So your slope is 3
NOw Plug In (1, -2)
-2 = 3(1) + b (b represents the y- intercept)
-2 = 3 + b (subtract 3 on both sides)
-5 = b
The final equation is y = 3x - 5
Hope this helps ya!!
