Answer:
y = -5x + 15
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll look for a linear function of the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
We can determine a slope from the two given points by calculating a Rise/Run. Starting at (2,5) and going to (3,0):
Rise = (0 - 5) = -5
Run = (3-2) = 1
Rise/Run = Slope, m) = -(5/1) or -5
Now we have y = -5x + b
To find b, enter either of the two points and solve for b. I'll use (3,0), because I know my zero multiplication and addition tables by heart.
y = -5x + b
0 = -5(3) + b
b = 15
The equation becomes y = -5x + 15
