Enter the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.

Slope is - 2/5, and (-9,2) is on the line.

y = (-2/5) x - 8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the slope-intercept form y = mx + b.

Replace m with - 2/5, y with 2 and x with - 9:

2 = (-2/5) (-9) + b

Simplifying this, we get:

2 = 18/5 + b, or 10/5 = 18/5 + b

Subtracting 18/5 from both sides yields b = - 8/5, and so

the desired equation is

y = (-2/5) x - 8/5
