Need help with the info on these two graph points: (-3,2) and (2,-1). Info I need for it is: *Equation for the line(That two points made) in slope-intercept form, standard form, & point slope form. *An inference about the steepness and direction of the line compared to the value given for slope. i'll put a picture of the line the two points make V V

anyone please

OpenStudy (hossamhoussien):

Slope-intersect form : \[y=mx+c\]================= \[y=\frac{ -3 }{ 5 } x+\frac{ 1 }{ 5 }\]================= General (standard) Form : \[ax+by-c=0\] Where m=-a/b ===============\[3x+5y−1=0\]=============== Point slope Form : \[(y-y _{1})=m(x-x _{1})\] \[where: (x _{1},y _{1}) point\] =============== \[(y-(-3))=\frac{-3}{5}(x-2)\]===============

Thank you! Can you help me with the last part? @HossamHoussien

OpenStudy (hossamhoussien):

steepness is simply the slope (m) you can conclude the direction from the attached pic

OpenStudy (hossamhoussien):

did you get it?

OpenStudy (hossamhoussien):

@gabby1214 ??

OpenStudy (gabby1214):

Ohh I think so, does that mean it would be a negative slope because the line is going down

OpenStudy (priyar):

ya u r correct @gabby1214

OpenStudy (priyar):

U can also check it with value of m (slope)..here m=-3/5 notice the negative sign...

OpenStudy (hossamhoussien):

yea you're correct
