Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Point-Slope Form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)  

• x₁ - x coordinate
• y₁ - y coordinate
• m - slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from graph.

y-intercept (0, 3)

Point (2, -5)

Step 2: Find slope m

1. Substitute [SF]:                    $m=\frac{-5-3}{2-0}$
2. Subtract:                              $m=\frac{-8}{2}$
3. Divide:                                 $m=-4$

Step 3: Write equation

Substitute variables into general form.

y + 5 = -4(x - 2)

y - 3 = -4(x - 0)
