Explanation:

Hey there!

We generally use double point formula for the equation of a st.line passing through points.

Here,

(0,-2) and (2,8) are two points.

Using two point formula,


(y - y1) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) (x - x1)

Put all values.


(y + 2) = (8 + 2)/(2 - 0) (x - 0)

Simplify them to get answer.


(y + 2) = 5(x - 0)


y + 2 = 5x


y = 5x - 2

Therefore therequired equation is y = 5x-2.

Hope it helps...
