Answer:

y = 3x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope using the slope formula

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

   = ( -1 - -4)/(-1 - -2)

   = (-1 +4)/ (-1 +2)

   = 3/1

  = 3

The slope intercept formula is

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

y = 3x+b

Using the point (-1,-1) and substituting into the equation

-1 = 3(-1)+b

-1 = -3+b

-1+3 = b

2 = b

y = 3x+2
