Answer

The equation is y = 2x - 12

Explanation

Equation in slope intercept form is

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Where,

m = slope

b = y-intercept

Putting the value of slope in this equation:

[tex]y = 2x + b[/tex]

From this we can solve the equation for b

[tex]b = y - 2x[/tex]

[tex]b = -2 - 2(5)[/tex]

[tex]b = -12[/tex]

Now, the equation of y-intercept becomes

[tex]y = 2x - 12[/tex]
