The answer is

y= -0.3x +5

Consider x1= 9
Y1=2
x2= 0
y2 = 5

Slope is

m = 3 / -9 = 1 / -3 = -0.33333

The entered points belong to a decreasing, linear function.
Equation: y = -0.33333x + 5.


m = 3 / -9 = 1 / -3 = -0.33333

The y-intercept is correct but the slope is wrong , go take any 2 points from the graph and use the rule , y2-y1/x2-x1 , to find the slope

Which I got was y=-1/3x+5

I really hope that helps and my deepest apologies if my answer turned out wrong!!
