Answer:

b= -7

Explanation:

First set up the equation y=mx+b.

The add what you know, so that:

y=2/5x+b

Now plug in (10,-3) to the equation to find b.

-3=2/5(10)+b

Simplify (2/5 * 10= 4)

-3=4+b

Get b alone by substracting four to each side.

b =-7

*I recommend checking my work, but this is what I put.
