You are told the slope and you are told the intercept.
So, y=(-3/5)x+5

THW LINE EQUATION IS Y=mX+b WHERE m=SLOPE & b=Y INTERCEPT.
NOW SUBSTITUTE THE X & Y VALUES ALONG WITH THE SLOPE(m) & SOLVE FOR b
5=(-3/5)0+b
5=b WHICH IS THE Y INTERCEPT. THUS THE LINE EQUATION IS
Y=-3X/5+5
HERE'S THE GRAPH
(graph 300x300 pixels, x from -10 to 10, y from -10 to 10, y = -3x/5 +5).
