Morgan Pacheco · Answer 1

slope = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = (y-y') / (x-x')

S = (-10 - (-5)) / (-3 - 2) = - 5 / - 5 = 1

Marilyn Barber · Answer 2

(y - yo) = m. (x - xo)

(-10 - (-5)) = m. (-3 - 2)

(-10 + 5) = m. (-5)

(-5) = m. (-5)

m = - 5/-5

m = 1 < - Slope

(y - yo) = 1. (x - xo)

(y - (-10)) = 1. (x - (-5))

y + 10 = 1. (x + 5)

y + 10 = x + 5

y = x + 5 - 10

y = x - 5 < - Line
