Answer:

B

Explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula and equate to
(3)/(2)

m =
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (r, - 4)

m =
(-4-2)/(r-3) =
(-6)/(r-3) , then equating gives


(-6)/(r-3) =
(3)/(2) ( cross- multiply )

3(r - 3) = - 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )

r - 3 = - 4 ( add 3 to both sides )

r = - 1 → B
