What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-5,-7) and has a slope of 2/5

Sagot :

Answer:

y = 2/5x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope-intercept form y = mx + b to substitute slope(m) = 2/5 and the point (-5, -7) and solve for b

y = mx + b

-7 = 2/5(-5) + b

-7 = -2 + b

-5 = b

The equation is y = mx + b;  y = 2/5x - 5
