Answer:

5x -2y = -10

Explanation:

Slope-intercept form of the equation for a line is ...

y = mx + b . . . . where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Using the given numbers, the equation is ...

y = 5/2x + 5

Multiplying by 2 gives ...

2y = 5x + 10

Subtracting 2y+10 puts the equation into standard form, with positive leading coefficient and mutually prime coefficients.

5x - 2y = -10
