Solve for y to get it into y+=+mx%2Bb form to get

y-5=-10%28x-4%29

y-5=-10x-10%28-4%29

y-5=-10x%2B40

y=-10x%2B40%2B5

y=-10x%2B45
=======================================================


Final Answer: y=-10x%2B45

Side Notes: In this case, the slope is m+=+-10 and the y-intercept is b=45 (which is the point (0,45))
