find the equation of the straight line joining the points (-5,2) and (3,-4)

y= -0.75x+5.75

Step-by-step explanation:

so, if y=mx+c

the gradient is m, which is equal to (y1-y2)/(x1-x2), (2--4)/(-5-3) = 6/-8=-0.75

so y= -0.75x+c

substitute y and x values

2(y)= -0.75(m)*-5(x)+c

2=-0.75*5+c

2= -3.75+c

5.75=c

so in the end, y= -0.75x+5.75

you cant answer this dummy

step-by-step explanation:

no this is a nonlinear negative
