Answer:

y = -5/2x + -4 (or) y = -5/2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Your slope is -5/2, so all you have to do is take the point (-2, 1) and use the slope to find a second point of (0, -4) which is coincidentally the y-intercept. Then you just plug the data into the equation y = mx+b. You do that and you get the answer of y = -5/2x+-4
