Answer:

y = 2x + 10

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

calculate m using the slope formula

m =
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 5, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 10) ← 2 points on the line

m =
(10-0)/(0-(-5)) =
(10)/(0+5) =
(10)/(5) = 2

the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 10 ) ⇒ c = 10

y = 2x + 10 ← equation of line
