Answer:

x - 5y = - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b (b is y-intercept)

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }[/tex]

~~~~~~~~~~~~

x + 4y = 8 ⇔ y = [tex]-\frac{1}{4}[/tex] x + 2 ⇒ y-intercept is 2 and coordinates of y-intercept are (0, 2)

(5, 3)

m = [tex]\frac{3-2}{5-0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

y = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] x + 2 (slope-intercept form)

x - 5y = - 10 (standard form)
