Answer:

D

Explanation:

Slope

All answers agree that the slope = - 3

y intercept

So far what you know is that the line is

y = -3x + b

The point shows that

5 = -3*2 + b Combine right

5 = -6 + b Add 6 to both sides

5 + 6 = -6+6 + b Combine

11 = b

So the y intercept = 11

Answer: y = -3x + 11 D
