Answer:

y = -
(3)/(5) x + 3

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c

Given


(5)/(3) y = - (x - 5) ← distribute parenthesis


(5)/(3) y = - x + 5 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )

5y = - 3x + 15 ( divide terms by 5 )

y = -
(3)/(5) x + 3 ← in slope- intercept form
