Answer:

First, we must find the slope of the line using slope formula.

[tex]m = \frac{-1 + 5)}{0 - 5} = \frac{4}{-5} = -\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Second, we must find the y-intercept, given the slope we found.

[tex]-5 = -\frac{4}{5}(-5) + b\\\\-5 = -4 + b\\\\-1 = b[/tex]

Finally, we can set an equation of this line.

[tex]y = -\frac{4}{5}x - 1[/tex]
