What is the equation of the line that passes through (-3,-1) and has a slope of 2/5. Put your answer in slope intercept

y = 2/5x + 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, plug in the slope.

y = mx+b

y = 2/5x + b

Then, plug in the point given, in order to find b.

-1 = 2/5(-3) + b

-1 = -6/5 + b

1/5 = b

So the final equation is:

y = 2/5x + 1/5

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)

the answer to this question is 3/19
