Answer:

The desired equation is y = -2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The general slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Starting from that, substitute the given values for m, x and y and calculate b:

6 = -2(-5) + b.  Then 6 = 10 + b, and b = -4.

The desired equation is y = -2x - 4.
