Respuesta :

Answer:

2x + y = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

First  find the slope of the required line by writing the line 2x + y = -5 in slope intercept form:

2x + y = -5

y = -2x - 5

- so the slope is -2.

Therefore the required equation is

y = -2x + 2    (where  2 is the y-intercept).

Converting to standard form:

y = -2x + 2

2x + y = 2.
