So any idea when you look at those equations?

exploradora1011 · Answer

Not one clue

kelvin8262 · Answer

do you know the equation of y = mx + C?

mjdennis · Answer

How about the point-slope equation for a line.  That would be a good start.

plainntall · Answer

Maybe using the definition of the slope might help.
$$m=rise/run=(y-y _{1})/(x-x _{1}) = -7 : where _ y _{1}=-3 and x _{1}=5$$
