[tex]\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-2}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{-2-(-1)}{6-3}\implies \cfrac{-2+1}{3}\implies -\cfrac{1}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-(-1)=-\cfrac{1}{3}(x-3)\implies y+1=-\cfrac{1}{3}(x-3)[/tex]
