First, we need to find the slope of the line passing through the points (0, -2) and (1, 3).
slope = (change in y) / (change in x)
slope = (3 - (-2)) / (1 - 0)
slope = 5 / 1
slope = 5
Now that we have the slope, we can use the point-slope form of a linear equation to find the equation of the line passing through the points.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Using the point (0, -2) and the slope m = 5:
y - (-2) = 5(x - 0)
y + 2 = 5x
Now, rearrange the equation into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b):
y + 2 = 5x
y = 5x - 2
Therefore, the equation of the line passing through the points (0, -2) and (1, 3) is y = 5x - 2.
