Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter F. y - 10 = 2(x - 1)

Explanation:

Data

A (1, 10)

B (-3, 2)

Process

1.- Calculate the slope

Slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

x1 = 1 y1 = 10

x2 = -3 y2 = 2

-Substitution

m = (2 - 10) / (-3 - 1)

-Simplification

m = -8/-4

-Result

m = 2

2.- Find the equation of the line

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

-Substitution and result

y - 10 = 2(x - 1)
