Answer:
y = 10x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the line has the general formula:
y = mx + c
where:
m is the slope = 10
c is the y-intercept = -5

Substitute with the givens in the above formula to get the equation as follows:
y = mx + c
y = 10x + (-5)
y = 10x - 5

Hope this helps :)
