y=12/11x+145/11y=1211x+14511

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is y=mx+by=mx+b.

We are given xx, yy, and mm.

So, plug these values in:
11=12/11*-2+b11=12112+b
11=-24/11+b11=2411+b
11+24/11=b11+2411=b
121/11+24/11=b12111+2411=b
145/11=b14511=b
This is how I would leave it but feel free to turn it into a mixed fraction or decimal.

So, our equation is y=(12/11)x+145/11y=(1211)x+14511
