You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Lets start with slope intercept form as
y+=+mx+%2B+b
we know m = 5 and b = -5, so we get
(i) y+=+5x-5
standard form requires 2 things
(1) no decimals
(2) X and Y stuff on the same side and the # by itself.
From (i) subtract 5x to get
(ii) -5x+%2B+y+=+-5
This is standard form.
