Answer:

C. y = -5/2x +8

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve first find the slope using the slope formula which is m=[tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]. To find the slope simply plug in the points, [tex]\frac{-2-3}{4-2}[/tex] which equals -5/2. Next, put the equation into slope-point form, which is [tex]y-y_{1} = m(x-x_{1})[/tex]. I will use the point (2,3). y-3=-5/2(x-2), then solve for y which equals y=-5/2+8.
