Answer: if this is supposed to be in slope-intercept form

the equation would be: y = -2/5x + 7

Explanation:

so the slope is: -2/5 and the point is (10,3) considering that x = 10 and y = 3

so we would plug this information into this equation: y = mx + b (slope-intercept form)

3 = -2/5(10) + b

3 = -4 + b

b = 7

and if we plug this in:

y = -2/5x + 7
