Answer:
The answer to your question is slope = -1; y = -x + 2
Explanation:
Data
M (-3, 5)
N (2, 0)
Process
1.- Calculate the slope of the line
slope = m (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
x1 = -3 y1 = 5 x2 = 2 y2= 0
-Substitution
m = (0 - 5) / (2 + 3)
-Simplification
m = -5/5
-Result
m = -1
2.- Find the equation of the line
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
-Substitution
y - 5 = -1(x + 3)
-Simplification
y - 5 = -x - 3
-Solve for y
y = -x - 3 + 5
-Result
y = -x + 2
