We will investigate the formulation of an equation of a straight line.

All equation of a straight line are mostly expressed in the general slope-intercept form as follows:

$y\text{ = m}\cdot x\text{ + c}$

Where,

$\begin{gathered} m\text{ : Slope/gradient} \\ c\colon\text{ y-intercept} \end{gathered}$

The above two parameters ( m and c ) distinguish amoung different equation of a straight line.

We are given the values of the two parameters as follows:

$\begin{gathered} m\text{ = -3} \\ c\text{ = 5} \end{gathered}$

We will go ahead and plug in the respective values of the two parameters in the generalized formulation of an equation of a straight line:

$y\text{ = -3x + 5}$

Therefore, the equation of the straight line is:

$y\text{ = -3x + 5 }\ldots\text{ Answer}$
