Explanation:
#"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form"# is.
#•color(white)(x)y=mx+b#
#"where m id the slope and b the y-intercept"#
#"here "m=-1#
#rArry=-x+blarrcolor(blue)"is the partial equation"#
#"to find b substitute "(-3,5)" into the partial equation"#
#5=3+brArrb=5-3=2#
#rArry=-x+2larrcolor(red)"in slope-intercept form"#
