% slope = m
slope = m\implies
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{5-(-2)}{0-(-2)}\implies \cfrac{5+2}{0+2}\implies \cfrac{7}{2}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-(-2)=\cfrac{7}{2}[x-(-2)]
\\\\\\
y+2=\cfrac{7}{2}(x+2)\implies y+2=\cfrac{7}{2}x+7\implies y=\cfrac{7}{2}x+5[/tex]
