Answer:

y = -x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The point is in quadrant 2, so the line must pass through points that look like (a, 0) and (0, a) where a is a positive number.  The slope of such a line is -1.

If (x, y) is a point on the line, then the slope between points (x, y) and (-5, 10) is 1, and you can write

[tex]\frac{y-10}{x-(-5)}=-1\\y-10 = -1(x+5)\\y-10=-x-5\\y=-x+5[/tex]
