Explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Given that the slope of the line is -2/5 and the y-intercept is -2/5. We can substitute these values into the equation:

y = -2/5x + -2/5

y = -2/5x - 2/5

The equation in slope-intercept form is y = -2/5x - 2/5.
