First convert -5/6(b+1) to -5/6b-5/6 which looks like:
1/3b+2/3b-5/6b-5/6
second add 1/3b+2/3b=3/3b, convert to 6/6b so:
6/6b-5/6b-5/6
subtract 6/6b-5/6b = 1/6b so:
1/6b-5/6 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the graph is given as y = (2/5)x - 5.
You have to figure out which of the choices equals the equation given,
y = (2/5)x - 5.
You could solve each of the answer choices for y, but since each choice is in the format x - (m)y = b, you can put the given equation in that format too.
