Answer:
y = (1)x +(-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the slope-intercept equation of the line graphed with y-intercept -5 and x-intercept +5.
Intercept form
The intercept form of the equation for a line with x-intercept 'a' and y-intercept 'b' is ...
x/a +y/b = 1
Using the given intercept values, a=5, b=-5, the equation is ...
x/5 +y/(-5) = 1
Slope-intercept form
The desired form of the equation can be found by solving for y:
-x +y = -5 . . . . . . multiply by -5
y = x -5 . . . . . . . . add x
The numbers that go in the boxes are 1 and -5.
