$\displaystyle y = 2x + 9$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the rate of change [slope]:

$\displaystyle \frac{-y_1 + y_2}{-x_1 + x_2} = m \\ \\ \frac{-5 + 15}{2 + 3} = \frac{10}{5} = 2$

Then, plug the coordinates into the Slope-Intercept Formula instead of the Point-Slope Formula because since you get it done much faster that way. It does not matter which ordered pair you choose:

15 = 2[3] + b

$\displaystyle 9 = b \\ \\ y = 2x + 9$

_______________________________________________

5 = 2[−2] + b

−4

$\displaystyle 9 = b \\ \\ y = 2x + 9$

** You see? I told you it did not matter which ordered pair you choose because you will always get the exact same result.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
