The correct answer is A) y = -1/5x + 1
To find the equation of the line, start by finding the slope. You can do this by using the slope formula below.
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (2 - -1)/(-5 - 10)
m = 3/-15
m = -1/5
Now that we have the slope, we can use it along with either point in point-slope form to get the equation.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 2 = -1/5(x + 5)
y - 2 = -1/5x - 1
y = -1/5x + 1
