Answer:

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{3}x + 5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

Let's start with where the line crosses the y axis.  We can see it crosses at 5.

So b = 5.

Let's try another point to figure out m, (3,4).

4 = 3m + 5

3m = -1

m = [tex]-\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Answer:

y=-1/3+5

Step-by-step explanation:

since the line is going downhill, the slope would be negative (the slope is the number with the x attached). The slope is 3 over and 1 down. You would write it as rise over run, so it would be a -1/3. The line hits the y axis at 5, so the b (y=mx+b is the slope equation) would be 5.
