    We'll construct the equation in the form y = mx + b. Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

    We already know the slope, but we need the y-intercept. We can find the y-intercept by plugging in the ordered pair we have into our equation.

    y = 2/3m + b

    Plug in the values.

    5 = (2/3) (-3) + b

    Solve for b.

    5 = (2/3) (-3) + b

    5 = - 2 + b

    7 = b < - - Add 2 to each side

    So, the equation would look like y = 2/3m + 7.
