Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{y-1=-\dfrac{1}{5}(x-2)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of a line:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

m - slope

(x₁, y₁) - point

The formula of a slope:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We have the points (-3, 2) and (2, 1). Substitute:

[tex]m=\dfrac{1-2}{2-(-3)}=\dfrac{-1}{5}=-\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]y-1=-\dfrac{1}{5}(x-2)[/tex]
