Answer:
y = (-5/2)x - 17
Step-by-step explanation:
<h2>Slope Intercept Formula:</h2>y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y-intercept
<h2>Plugin Information:</h2>
y = mx + b
Slope = -5/2
y = (-5/2)x + b Input x and y values from given point
-2 = (-5/2)-6 + b
<h2>Simplify, Solve for b:</h2>-2 = (-5 * -6)/(2) + b
-2 = 30/2 + b
-2 = 15 + b
b = -2 - 15
b = -17
<h2 /><h2>Rewrite Equation:</h2>y = mx + b
m = -5/2
b = -17
y = (-5/2)x - 17

The answer is C. You can make a rectangle by putting the diagonals through the center anywhere, but if you want a square, you have to put the two diagonals perpendicular to each other and join their ends. See the diagram.
