Answer:
y = -1x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
(-5, 3) and (2, -4)
= -1
-5 = x
3 = y
-1 = m
Remember y = mx + b
Insert numbers for equation
3 = (-1 * -5) + b
We need to solve for b to finish the equation
-1 * -5 = 5
3 = 5 + b
Flip equation:
b + 5 = 3
Subtract 5 from both sides:
b+5−5=3−5
b = -2
Finish point intercept form equation, now that we have 'b'
y = -1x - 2
