Answer:

y = -1/5x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

   = (-1 -2)/(10 - -5)

    = -3/(10+5)

    = -3/15

    = -1/5

Then we can use point slope form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -1/5x +b

Substitute a point into the equation

2 = -1/5(-5) +b

2 = 1 +b

Subtract 1 from each side

1 =b

y = -1/5x +1
