Answer:

An equation in slope-intercept form for this line is
y=(5)/(2)x-19

Explanation:

Slope intercept form :

We are given that A line passes through the point (4, −9) and has a slope of 5/2.

So,

Substitute the value in the equation :

So,

So, an equation in slope-intercept form for this line is
