Answer:


\displaystyle 5x + y = -19\:or\:y = -5x - 19

Step-by-step Step-by-step explanation:

Plug the information into the Slope-Intercept Formula:


\displaystyle y = mx + b \\ \\ -4 = -5[-3] + b \hookrightarrow -4 = 15 + b; -19 = b \\ \\ y = -5x - 19

Suppose you need to write this equation in standard form. You would follow these procedures:

y = −5x - 19

+ 5x + 5x

__________


\displaystyle 5x + y = -19

I am joyous to assist you at any time.
