Is this correct? equation of line

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

question: Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form passing through (3, 5) and (2, 9) my answer: finding slope: m = (5 - 9)/(3 - 2) m = -4/1 m = -4 finding y-intercept: y = mx + b 5 = -4(3) + b 5 = -12 + b 5 + 12 = -12 + b + 12 17 = b equation: y = -4x + 17
