Answer:

y = -3x +5

Explanation:

You want the equation -5 = -y -3x written in slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form

The desired form is ...

y = mx +b . . . . . . . . . . . where m is the slope of the line, b is the intercept

We can get this form by adding y+5 to both sides of the equation. This puts y by itself on one side of the equal sign, as we want.

-5 +y +5 = -y -3x +y +5

y = -3x +5 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
