Answer:

y = (-5/2)x - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Slope Intercept Formula:</h2>

y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

<h2>Plugin Information:</h2>

y = mx + b

Slope = -5/2

y = (-5/2)x + b        \longmapsto\\         Input x and y values from given point

-2 = (-5/2)-6 + b

<h2>Simplify, Solve for b:</h2>

-2 = (-5 * -6)/(2) + b

-2 = 30/2 + b

-2 = 15 + b

b = -2 - 15

b = -17

<h2 /><h2>Rewrite Equation:</h2>

y = mx + b

m = -5/2

b = -17

y = (-5/2)x - 17

Answer: y = -5/2 -17

Step-by-step explanation: First put the equation in point slope form

Y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y + 2 = -5/2(x+6) then simplify to slope int. form

Y= mx + b

Y = -5/2x-17

Can you help me on attached picture

Answer:

its 15 lol

this is elementary school or something???

Step-by-step explanation:

IF

3 * x =9

then do 9/3=3

So you are multiplying by 3

So therefore you would do that to 5 so its 9/15

and 9/15 and 3/5 are the same, just that 9/15 isnt simplified

hope this helps have a nice day!!
