Answer:

Answer is given below with explanations.

Step-by-step explanation:

$given \: the \: line \: n \: passes \: through \\ \: ( - 3, - 7.5) \: \: and(2, - 5) \\ the \: equation \: of \: the \: line \: is \\ \frac{y - y1}{y2 - y1} = \frac{x - x1}{x2 - x1} \\ here \: x1 = - 3 \: \: \: y1 = - 7.5 \\ and \: \: x2 = 2 \: \: \: y2 = - 5 \\ \frac{y - ( - 7.5)}{ - 5 - ( - 7.5)} = \frac{x - ( - 3)}{2 - ( - 3)} \\ \frac{y + 7.5}{ - 5 + 7.5} = \frac{x + 3}{2 + 3} \\ \frac{y + 7.5}{2.5} = \frac{x + 3}{5} \\ dividing \: by \: 5 \: on \: both \: side s\\ \frac{y + 7.5}{0.5} = \frac{x + 3}{1} \\ 0.5(x + 3) = y + 7.5 \\ 0.5x + 1.5 = y + 7.5 \\ 0.5x - y - 6 = 0 \\ is \: the \: required \: equation.$
