I get the following

y=-.3955x +1.486

The result from my previous post was:

\left(\dfrac{2\cdot \sqrt{13}}{13} + \dfrac{\sqrt{37}}{37}\right) \cdot x + \left(\dfrac{3 \cdot \sqrt{13}}{13} + \dfrac{6 \cdot \sqrt{37}}{37}\right) \cdot y - \left(\dfrac{5\cdot \sqrt{13}}{13} + \dfrac{8 \cdot \sqrt{37}}{37}\right) = 0

If you solve this equation for y and use approximate values you'll get:

y = - 0.3954474799\cdot x + 1.485853875
