Answer:
y = -5x - 11
Step-by-step explanation:
First we are going to find the slope of the function using the formula attached below as an image:
(-5, 14)
(1, -16)
x_1 = -5
x_2 = 1
y_1 = 14
y_2 = -16
Now plug in the values and start simplifying:
(-16 - 14)/(1 - (-5))
(-30)/(6)
-5
The slope is -5.
Now we're going to use the point-slope formula to find the final function:
(point-slope formula has been attached as an image as well)
I'm going to use the point (-5, 14) for this formula:
y - 14 = -5(x + 5)
y - 14 = -5x - 25
y = -5x - 11
That's your answer! Hope this helps (●'◡'●)
