Choose the equation that represents the line that passes through the point (2, 6) and has a slope of −5.

y=-5x+16

Explanation:

We already know the slope, and in y=mx+b, m is the slope. So now we have y=-5x+b.

Next, since we do not know the y-intercept, we can substitute the y and x values we are given in the current equation we have, y=-5+b. Now we have 6=-5(2)+b.

Now we can solve for b.

6=-10+b

16=b. We know that b=16.

Therefore, the equation is y=-5x+16
