i need help plz will medal +fan

OpenStudy (james1769):

What is the equation in point−slope form of the line passing through (−2, −5) and (2, 3)? (y + 2) = −2(x + 5) (y − 2) = 2(x − 3) (y − 3) = 2(x − 2) (y + 3) = −2(x + 2)

OpenStudy (ryuga):

(y − 3) = 2(x − 2)

OpenStudy (james1769):

is it correct?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

hint: the slope \(m\) of the requested line, is given by the subsequent formula: \[\Large m = \frac{{{y_2} - {y_1}}}{{{x_2} - {x_1}}} = \frac{{3 - \left( { - 5} \right)}}{{2 - \left( { - 2} \right)}} = ...?\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

subsequently, in order to get the requested equation, you can apply this equation: \(y-3=m(x-2)\) where \(m\) is the slope computed by means of the preceding formula above
