ANSWER


y=-(1)/(5)x

Step-by-step explanation

As we can see, line j passes through the origin, so its y-intercept is zero and the equation has the form,


y=mx

To find the slope we have to use the formula,


m=(\Delta y)/(\Delta x)

In this graph,

Δy = 1 and Δx = 5, but the line is inclined to the left, so the slope is negative,


m=-(1)/(5)

And the equation is,


y=-(1)/(5)x
