Answer:

y = -x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope:  As we go from (-5,6) to (0,1), x increases by 5 and y decreases by 5.  Hence the slope is m = rise / run = -1.

The point (0, 1) happens to be the y-intercept, b.

Thus, y = mx + b, the slope-intercept form, becomes:

y = -x + 1.

Answer:B

M=Y2-Y1/X2-X1. whereY2=1,Y1=6,X2=0,X1=-5.

M=1-6/0-(-5)

= -1

USING EQUATION OF A LINE PASSSING THROUGH THE POINTS>

Y-Y1=M(X-X1)

Y-6=-1(X-(-5)

Y-6=-1(X+5)
