Answer 1

To create an equation, you have to find the slope of the line

m = $\frac{ y_{2}- y_{1} }{ x_{2}- x_{1} }$

Where m is your slope  and:

(4,5) => $(x_{1}, y_{1})$

(-3,-1) => $(x_{2} , y_{2} )$

So, plug the numbers into the equation

$m = \frac{-1-5}{-3-4} = \frac{-6}{-7} = \frac{6}{7}$

The slope of this equation is 6/7

Point slope form of a line is:

$y - y_{1} = m(x - x_{1} )$

(-3,-1) => $(x_{2} , y_{2} )$ and m = 6/7

y + 1 = 6/7 (x + 3)
