To find the linear equation, use the slope formula y = mx+b, where b is the value of the y-intercept and m is rise/run.
The line rises 1 unit and runs (left to right) -5 units. (you could also say the line runs -1 units and runs 5 units, they will both give the same answer). Rise/run, 1/-5 = -1/5.
The y-intercept is the y value where the line touches the y-axis. In this case, it is +1.
Plug the information into the equation. m = -1/5 and y = 1. y = -1/5x + 1

Answer:
y + 7 = - 
(x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
Where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
Here m = - and (a, b) = (1, - 7), thus
y - (- 7) = - (x - 1), that is
y + 7 = - (x - 1) ← in point- slope form
Answer:
5:1
Step-by-step explanation:
Originally the ratio is 20:4
but then it is simplified to 10:2
then 5:1
