Answer:

see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig relations are summarized by the mnemonic SOH CAH TOA. This means ...

Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

So, for each triangle, determine the relationships of the given sides to the given angle: adjacent, opposite, or hypotenuse. Then write and solve the equation using one of the above templates.

$\bf y=-5x+b\impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\qquad \qquad \stackrel{therefore}{m=-5} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\$

$\bf A(\stackrel{x_1}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-2})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies -5 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-(-2)=-5(x-5)\implies y+2=-5x+25 \\\\\\ y=-5x+25-2\implies y=-5x+\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{23}$
