Find the equation of the line through the following points: (-2, -3) and (1, 5)

Note the formula: y - y1 = m(x - x1)x, y, x1, y1 refer to the values of your given coordinates. 'm' symbolises the gradient of the line you are asked to findRearrange the formula to make 'm' the subject - m = y - y1 /(x - x1)Insert the value of 'm' you calculated as well as the (x1, y1) set of coordinates. Expand, simplify and rearrange the new equation to make 'y' the subject - you now have the equation of the line.
