The slope of a line thru (–1, 3) and (2, –2) is
3+2
m = -------- = -5/3
-1-2

Starting with the point-slope formula, y-k = m(x-h), we get

y+2 = (-5/3)(x-2).

Answer:

ITS A !!

Step-by-step explanation:

(-1, 3) (2, -2)

M= -2 - 3 = -5

2 - (-1) = 3

So its -5/3 in the middle. for x and y it used (-1, 3) -1 = x 3 = y

SOOOO... its y-3= -5/3 (x+1) :))) trust meee!
