Answer:

y = -4/3x - 23/3

y + 5 = -4/3(x+2) --> distribute
y + 5 = -4/3x + -8/3 ---> minus 5 or 15/3

y = -4/3x - 23/3

Answer: y = -4/3x -23/3

Step-by-step explanation: The slope intercept form in y=mx+b. Based on the order of operations, you get rid of the parentheses first, by multiplying out the stuff. Then you subtract 5 from both sides to get the slope intercept form.
