y=-5x-9 Use y=mx+b The slope is -5 . Hope it helps.

the line has a gradient of -5 and an intercept of -9. so on a graph it would go 5 down and 9 across (towards the left of the graph)

The slope of the line given by the equation y = − 5 x − 9 is − 5 . This means that as x increases, y decreases. The line crosses the y-axis at − 9 .
