Answer 1

y = -2x + 5

Explanation:

To find the slope, you need to pick two points and put into the slope formula. It doesn't matter which ones, you will get the right answer regardless. I used (-3, 11) and (2, 1).

`m=(y_(2) -y_(1) )/(x_(2) -x_(1) ) \\m=(11 -1 )/(-3 -2 ) \\m=(10 )/(-5 ) \\m=-2`

Now that you have the slope, you can plug it into point-slope form to find the equation in slope-intercept form. You will also need to plug one of the given points. Again, it doesn't matter which one.

`y-y_(1)=m(x-x_(1) )\\y-1=-2(x-2)\\y-1=-2x+4\\y=-2x+5`
