By using the concept of equation of a line, prove that the three points `(3, 0)`, `( -2, -2)`and `(8, 2)`are collinear.

Explanation

To prove that the points \( (3, 0) \), \( (-2, -2) \), and \( (8, 2) \) are collinear, we will find the equation of the line that passes through the first two points and then check if the third point lies on this line.

### Step 1: Identify the points
Let the points be:
- \( A(3, 0) \)
- \( B(-2, -2) \)
- \( C(8, 2) \)
