Answer:

y=2/5x-2

Explanation:

The main equation you will need for this is y=mx+b

First, you have to find the slope. the equation for that is

-2-0 = -2 (y)

0-5= -5 (x)

A good way to remember this is rise over run or y is always over x

Slope = 2/5 (The negatives cancel out)

The great thing about this is that they have already given you your "y" intercept or "b" which is -2
