Answer 1

Answer:

y = -5x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the line be: y = ax + b.

The given points should satisfy the equation.

Substituting the points in the equation we get the values of 'a' and 'b'.

The first point is: (1,0)

⇒ 0 = a(1) + b ⇒ 0 = a + b

⇒ b = -a

(2, -5) is another point. Substituting this we have:

-5 = a(2) + b = 2a - a = a

⇒ a = -5

⇒ b = -a = 5.

Therefore, the equation of the line becomes y = -5x + 5.
