Question

Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the points (−3, 2) and (2, 1).
y + 3 = −5(x − 2)

y − 2 = −5(x + 3)

y + 3 = −(x − 2)

y − 2 = −(x + 3)

Answer 1

Firstly find the slope..

\[Slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\]

\[(x_1, y_1) = (-3,2)\]

\[(x_2, y_2) = (2,1)\]

Substitute and then find the Slope..
