Answer: y=4/5x-2 or y=4/5x+(-2)

Explanation:

The formula for slope-intercept form is y=mx+b.

To find the slope, we can use the formula
m=(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) ) and plugging in the points given.


m=(6-2)/(10-5) =(4)/(5)

We know our slope is 4/5. We can plug this into our slope-intercept form and then plug in a point to find b, y-intercept.


y=(4)/(5) x+b


2=(4)/(5)(5)+b


2=4+b


b=-2

We know the y-intercept is -2.

THe final equation is y=4/5x-2 or y=4/5x+(-2).
