Answer:

y = - 5x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 5, thus

y = - 5x + c ← is the partial equation of the line

To find c substitute (2, 6) into the partial equation

6 = - 10 + c ⇒ c = 6 + 10 = 16

y = - 5x + 16 ← equation of line
