Write the standard form of the equation of the line that passes through the given points. include your work in your final answer. type your answer in the box provided or use the upload option to submit your solution. (5, 3) and (8, -2)

(5,3)(8,-2)
slope = (-2 - 3) / (8 - 5) = -5/3

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -5/3
use either of ur points...(5,3)...x = 5 and y = 3
now we sub and find b, the y int
3 = -5/3(5) + b
3 = -25/3 + b
3 + 25/3 = b
9/3 + 25/3 = b
34/3 = b

so ur equation is : y = -5/3x + 34/3but we need it in standard form

y = -5/3x + 34/3
5/3x + y = 34/3multiply both sides by 3
5x + 3y = 34 <==
