Answer:
x + y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line through two points can be found using the 2-point form for the equation of a line:
y -y1 = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) . . . . . line through points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)
__
y -5 = (1 -5)/(2 -(-2))(x +2) . . . . using points (-2, 5) and (2, 1)
y -5 = (-4/4)(x +2)
y -5 = -(x +2) . . . . . . equation in point-slope form
y -5 = -x -2
y = -x +3 . . . . . . . . . equation in slope-interept form
x + y = 3 . . . . . . . . . equation in standard form
