Answer:

The slope is 1 and the line is y = x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the line, use the points in the slope formula.

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

m = (1 - -3)/(5 - 1)

m = 4/4

m = 1

So the slope is 1. Now to find the line, we use the slope along with either point in point slope form to solve.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 1 = 1(x - 5)

y - 1 = x - 5

y = x - 4
