Answer:

Y = -5x + 29

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is finding the slope:

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

-1 - 4 = -5

6 - 5 = 1

-5/1 = -5

Now to point slope form ( y - y1 = m (x - x1)

Let's use the point 5, 4.

y - 4 = -5 (x - 5)

Time to simplify to slope intercept form ( y = mx + b)!

1. distribute

y - 4 = -5x + 25

2. Add 4 to both sides, making y alone.

Y = -5x + 29
