Find the point-slope form of the equation of the line satisfying the given conditions and use this to write the slope-intercept form of the equation.
x-intercept =( 5/2, 0) and y-intercept = (0, 2)
-------
x/(5/2) + y/2 = 1
-------------------------------
y/2 = (-2/5)x + 1
-------
Multiply both sides by 2 to get::
y = (-4/5)x + 2
------------------
