Answer:

y = -3x + 5

Explanation:

y = mx + b The m is the slope and the b is the y intercept. Substitute in the slope and the y-intercept

y = -3x + 5

First, graph the y-intercept. That will be at the point (0, 5). From that point, go down 3 units and then go one unit right. You will be back on the line. That is the slope.

Answer: Y=-3X+5

Explanation:

Slope intercept form is Y=mx+b where m is slope and b is slope intercept to graph you can use desmos which is a free graphing calculator just punch in the equation exactly as I gave it. since m is slope it is -3 and b is y intercept so 5 so Y=-3x+5
