Answer:

y=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{19}{5}y=−52x+519

Further explanation:

We have to find the equation of the line first to graph the line.

The general form of slope-intercept form of equation of line is:

y=mx+by=mx+b

Given

m=-\frac{2}{5}m=−52

Putting the value of slope in the equation

y=-\frac{2}{5}x+by=−52x+b

To find the value of b, putting the point (-3,5) in equation

\begin{gathered}5=-\frac{2}{5}(-3)+b\\5=\frac{6}{5}+b\\5-\frac{6}{5}+b\\b=\frac{25-6}{5}\\b=\frac{19}{5}\end{gathered}5=−52(−3)+b5=56+b5−56+bb=525−6b=519

Putting the values of b and m

y=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{19}{5}y=−52x+519
