Answer:
y=-2.5x+1

Solution-
Keeping the x and y as variables, the equations looks like this:
y=mx+b
To find b, go to point (0,1), b is 1 because it crosses the y-axis at 1.
To find the slope, use this formula.
change in y/ change in x
m = -2.5 / 1 = -2.5 m = -2.5 / 1 = -2.5
So, combine all of that and get
y=-2.5x+1
This is my 2nd answer ever so I’m sorry if this wasn’t helpful!
