Answer:

y=-3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+c

point 1: (-1;8)

point 2: (0;5)

[tex]m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} [/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{5 - 8}{0 - ( - 1)} [/tex]

[tex]m = - \frac{ 3}{1} [/tex]

[tex]m = - 3[/tex]

subs point and gradient to get c

5=-3(0)+c

Therefore c=5

The equation is y=-3x+5
