Answer:

y=-6/5x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you know the slope of the line, you can put it into the slope-intercept form equation:

y=-6/5(x) +b

Then plug in the x and y values which are -5 and -2:

-2=-6/5(-5) +b

Now you can solve for b:

-2=6 +b

-8=b

Now that you know b and already have the slope, plug those into the equation:

y=-6/5x -8
