Question

What is an equation in point-slope form for the line that passes through the points (−3,5) and (2,−3) ?

A. y−3=−85(x+5)

B. y−5=−85(x+3)

C. y−3=−58(x+5)

D. y−5=85(x+3)

Answer 1

Slope= Ya-Yb/Xa-Xb
Slope= 5+3/2+3
Slope=8/5
Equation: y-ya=slope(x-xa)
Equation: y-5=8/5(x+3)
Then D is the correct answer
