First simplify the equation of parabola y=-5x^2+15x-10 in the following way:
D=(15)^2-4\cdot (-5) \cdot (-10)=225-200=25, \\  \sqrt{D}=5, \\  x_{1,2} = \dfrac{-15\pm 5}{2\cdot(-5)} = 2, 1  \\ -5x^2+15x-10=-5(x-1)(x-2), \\ y=-5(x-1)(x-2).
You can see that if x=1 or x=2, then y=0. Two points of intersection with x-axis are (1,0) and (2,0).

1) Find an equation of the line that passes through thr pair of points (-5,-9) and (2,-7).
Yuki888 [10]
1: Assuming this line is linear, the first thing to do is find the slope. 
The slope formula is m=\frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{ x_{2} - x_{1} }, so in this case, it is m=\frac{ (-7) - (-9) }{ 2 - (-5) }, which comes to \frac{2}{7}. Then, use your slope and one of the points given to write the point-slope formula of the linear equation, and then written in standard form:
y=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{53}{7}.

2. Use the same process as in question 1 to find:
y=-7x+11
