Answer:

y = 1/5x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write your equation: y = 1/5x + b. Plug in your coordinate to the equation, it should look like this: -1 = 1/5(5) + b. Multiply 1/5 by 5 to get 1. This is what it should look like now: -1 = 1 + b. Subtract 1 from both sides to get -2 = b. Go back to your original equation and plug in -2 to b. This is your final equation: y = 1/5x -2. Hope this helped!
