Answer:
y=2x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})[/tex]
[tex]x_{1}=0, y_{1}=-5\\[/tex], and m=2
[tex]y-(-5)=2(x-0)[/tex], -(-5)-Two negatives make it positive, and you distribute the 2
[tex]y+5=2x[/tex], you now subtract 5 to get y by itself to get your answer of
[tex]y=2x-5[/tex]
*NOTE* (0,-5) is the y-intercept, so you could have used the linear equation of y=mx+b, m=2, and b(y-intercept)=-5
giving you y=2x-5
