Answer:

The line equation in slope-intercept form is:


y\:=-(2)/(5)x+4

Hence, option D is true.

Explanation:

Given the points

  • (0, 4)
  • (5, 2)

Finding the slope between the points


\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(0,\:4\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(5,\:2\right)


\mathrm{Slope}=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)


m=(2-4)/(5-0)


m=-(2)/(5)

As the y-intercept is obtained by setting the value x = 0.

As we know that when x = 0, the vale of y-intercept y = 4

so the y-intercept is b = 4.

As the slope-intercept form is

substituting the slope m = -2/5 and the y-intercept b=4


y = mx+b


y\:=-(2)/(5)x+4

Therefore, the line equation in slope-intercept form is:


y\:=-(2)/(5)x+4

Hence, option D is true.
