Explanation:
First use the Point Slope form of a line:
Now do the algebra to convert it to slope intercept form:
graph{y-2=7/5x-21/5 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Explanation:
#"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form"# is.
#•color(white)(x)y=mx+b#
#"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept"#
#"here "m=7/5#
#y=7/5x+blarrcolor(blue)"is the partial equation"#
#"to find b substitute "(3,2)" into the partial equation"#
#2=21/5+brArrb=10/5-21/5=-11/5#
#y=7/5x-11/5larrcolor(red)"in slope-intercept form"#
