Answer:

y = 5/2x + 5

Explanation:

Your b value is the place where the line crosses the y-axis. So, we can tell right away the b value in the equation is 5.

I'll use negative 2 as the point to find the slope. You go down 5, so we have -5, and go left 2, so -2. 2 negatives make a positive, so the slope is 5/2.

Final equation -

y = 5/2x + 5
