Answer:


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

Explanation:

Points : (-2,3) and ( 3,0)

Let
(x_1,y_1)=(-2,3)


(x_2,y_2)=(3,0)

Two point slope form :
y-y_1=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)(x-x_1)

Substitute the given points.


y-3=(0-3)/(3-(-2))(x-(-2))


y-3=(0-3)/(3+2)(x+2)


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

Thus Option 2 is correct.


y-3=(-3)/(5)(x+2) equation is in point-slope form and is depicted by the line in this graph
