Answer: y = - 0.4 x - 4.5

Explanation:

Equation y=mx+b

m is the slope

x is *ANY* x coordinate

y is *ANY* y coordinate

b is y intercept or WHERE the point is on the Y AXIS

Lets look at the given:

Slope (m) is -2/5

Passes through point 15, -9/2

As you can see, the point goes through the Y axis at (-9/2)

Our equation is y = - 0.4 x - 4.5
