Answer:

y - 2 = 2(x + 3)

Explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y = b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b ) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m =
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 2 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 12 )

m =
(12-2)/(2-(-3)) =
(10)/(2+3) =
(10)/(5) = 2

using (a, b ) = (- 3, 2 ) , then

y - 2 = 2(x - (- 3) ) , that is

y - 2 = 2(x + 3)
