Answer:

y = 6x - 5

Explanation:

The formula for a slope-intercept line equation is y = (slope)x + (y-intercept). You can get the answer by filling in each of the variables that you are given. Something to note here is that the addition sign in the formula becomes a minus sign because the y-intercept is negative.
