    2x + 3y - 5 = 0

    Step-by-step explanation:

    hello:

    (4; -1) : x=4 and y = - 1 so : 2 (4) + 3 (-1) - 5 = 0 means : 8-3-5 = 0 ... true

    (-2; 3) : x=-2 and y = 3 so : 2 (-2) + 3 (3) - 5 = 0 means : - 4+9-5 = 0 ... true

    2x+3y-5=0

    Step-by-step explanation:

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

    m = (3 - (-1)) / (-2-4)

    m = (3+1) / -6

    m=4/-6

    simplify

    m=-2/3

    y-y1=m (x-x1)

    y - (-1) = -2/3 (x-4)

    y+1=-2/3x+8/3

    y=-2/3x+8/3-1

    y=-2/3x+8/3-3/3

    y=-2/3x+5/3

    y - (-2/3x) = 5/3

    y+2/3x=5/3

    3 (y+2/3x) = 3 (5/3)

    3y+6/3x=15/3

    3y+2x=5

    2x+3y=5

    2x+3y-5=0
