Write the equation on the line passing through the two points (-2,11) and (5,-3)

y = - 2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 11) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, - 3)

m = = = - 2, thus

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (- 2, 11), then

11 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 11 - 4 = 7

y = - 2x + 7 ← equation of line

add the table and i will answer correctly
