The two points are (0,-2) and (5,2) so all we have to do is plug them into the formula for slope which is y2-y1/x2-x1. The point you choose to represent x1 and y1 dpesn’t matter as long as you keep them consistent. Ok so 2-(-2)/5-0 which is 4/5 so the slope is 4/5. The y-intercept is the point where x=0 so -2 is the y-intercept. The answer is 4/5x-2 which is C in your answer choices. Hope this helps!
