The Slope-Intercept form of the equation of a line is:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

You can find the slope of the line with this formula:

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

For this case you can set up that:

[tex]\begin{gathered} y_2=-1 \\ y_1=11 \\ x_2=-4 \\ x_1=-1 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Substituting values into the formula, you get that the slope of this line is:

[tex]m=\frac{-1-11}{-4-(-1)}=\frac{-12}{-4+1}=\frac{-12}{-3}=4[/tex]

Substitute the slope and one of the coordinates of one of the points on the line, into the equation

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

And solve for "b":

[tex]\begin{gathered} -1=4(-4)+b \\ -1=-16+b \\ -1+16=b \\ b=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, knowing "m" and "b", you can determine that the equation of this line in Slope-Intercept form is:

[tex]y=4x+15[/tex]
