\huge\boxed{\bold{Hello~there!}}

We are given the slope and the y-intercept of the line.

We can use the Slope-Intercept formula:


\huge\boxed{\boxed{y=mx+b}}

Where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

Since we are given the slope and the y-intercept, we can use the formula to determine the equation of the line.

All we have to do is plug in -3 instead of m, and 5 instead of b:

y=-3x+5


\huge\boxed{\mathbb{ANSWER:{\boxed{\tt{y=-3x+5}}}}}


\boxed{\bigstar} I really hope that my answer is helpful!
