To find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form, we first need to determine the slope of the line. The slope, denoted by m, can be determined using the formula:

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

where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two points on the line.

Let's use the points (1,3) and (0,-2) to find the slope:

m = (3 - (-2)) / (1 - 0)
m = 5 / 1
m = 5

Now that we know the slope is 5, we can use the slope-intercept form of a line:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

To find the y-intercept, we can use any point on the line. Let's use (1,3):

3 = 5(1) + b
3 = 5 + b
b = 3 - 5
b = -2

Therefore, the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:

y = 5x - 2
