    y = (2/5) x - 2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    I'm assuming that your x-intercept is (5,0) and that your y-intercept is (0,-2).

    Going from (0, - 2) to (5,0), x increases by 5 and y increases by 2. Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = 2/5.

    The equation of this line is thus y = (2/5) x - 2.
