The first thing you have to do is:
subtract: 11-5
Then subtract: -4-(-2)
then you put it as a fraction: 6/-2 or -3
That -3 would be considered the slope.
So now you have: y=-3x+ b
So what you have to do is plug in one of the points into the equation to find out what b is.
For example: 11 = -3(-4) + b
11=12 + b
-12 -12
b = -1
So the answer is: y = -3x -1

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<em>d</em> =
or 8.60
Step-by-step explanation:
(5, 8) (-2, 3)
Let 5 = 
8 = 
-2 = 
3 = 
Plug in the values into the equation to get the distance:
<em>d = </em>
<em />
<em>d </em>= 
<em>d = </em>
<em>d</em> = 
<em>d = </em>
or 8.60
