Answer by checkley71(8403)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
FIRST YOU SOLVE THE SLOPE-INTERCEPT EQUATION THUS Y=mX+b WHERE THE SLOPE IS Y INTERCEPT IS B OR -5 POINT(0,-5) AND THE X INTERCEPT IS FOUND BY SETTING Y=0
THUS 0=-5X-5 OR -5X=5 OR X=5/-5 OR X=-1 POINT (-1,0)
NOW DRAW A STRAIGHT LINE THROUGH THESE TWO POINTS AND YOU HAVE THE LINE EXPRESED BY THE EXPRESSION Y=-5X-5 WITH A SLOPE OF -5
