Answer:

[tex]y=x-8[/tex] or [tex]y+5=x-3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To write an equation finding the equation of a line you can use y-y1=m(x-x1)

Step 1: Find the slope using slope formula [tex]\frac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2} -x_{1}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-9 -(-5)}{-1 -3}=\frac{-4}{-4} =1[/tex]

Step 2: Plug in numbers to Point Slope Form.

[tex]y-(-5)=1(x-3)=y+5=x-3[/tex]

Step 3: Depending on what your teacher prefers you can also change it into slope-intercept form

[tex]y=x-8[/tex]
