Given:

The graph of a line.

To find:

The equation for the given line.

Solution:

From the given graph, it is clear that the line passes through the points (0,-5) and (5,0). So, the equation of the line is:


y-y_1=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)(x-x_1)


y-(-5)=(0-(-5))/(5-0)(x-0)


y+5=(5)/(5)(x)


y+5=x

Subtract 5 from both sides.


y+5-5=x-5


y=x-5

Therefore, the equation of the given line is
y=x-5.
