<h2>Answer:</h2>
First, we need to use <u><em>slope formula*</em></u> to find the slope.
Second, we use the slope we found and <em>ONE</em> of the 2 points listed and plug it into <u><em>slope-intercept form**</em></u> to solve for <u><em>b</em></u>.
Here is what we have so far:
I'm going to use this point:
Here is how to find <em>b</em>:
Finally, we put all of it together and we have our equation.
*Slope formula: <em>m = y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁</em>
**Slope-intercept form: <em>y = mx + b</em>
<em></em>
