Answer:

y= -3x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find the slope

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( 14-5)/(-2 -1)

   = 9/-3

  = -3

The slope-intercept form is y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -3x+b

Using one of the points, we can substitute into the equation and solve for b

5 = -3(1)+b

5 = -3+b

Add 3 to each side

5+3 = -3+b+3

8 = b

y= -3x+8
