Answer:
y=4/5x-5
Explanation:
to find the slope intercept form (y=mx+b) we must find the slope(m) first. We take the two points given and use the slope formula (y2-y1/x2-x1) take the point (0,-5) as (x1,y1) and the point (5,-1) as (x2,y2).Using the slope formula {-1-(-5)/5-0}. We get the slope equal to 4/5. Now we have y= 4/5x+b.To find b we must choose one point from the given and substitute x and y in the formula we have(y=4/5x+b). I chose (0,-5) so substituting that, (-5=4/5(0)+b), and to finally get b=-5.Now substitute b in the equation y=4/5x+b to get y=4/5x-5.
