Answer:

The equation would be y = -1/2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation, we first need to use the slope formula.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (5 - 0)/(0 - 10)

m = 5/-10

m = -1/2

Now that we have that, we can use that and a point to find the full equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 0 = -1/2(x - 10)

y = -1/2x + 5
