Answer:
a= -1
B
Step-by-step explanation:
My opinion:
the slope m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope m is -5
y2 is 7
y1 is 2
x2 is -2
x1 is a
so the equation will be
-5 = (7 - 2) / (-2 -a )
10 + 5a = 5
5a = -5
a = -1
Then you can plug the value a = -1 into the equation of the slope m to double check it.
