Answer:

y = -1/7 x + 39/7

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation in point slope form is

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

We are given the slope

y = -1/7 x + b

Substitute in the point for x and y and solve for b

5 = -1/7(4) +b

5 = -4/7 +b

5 + 4/7 = b

5*7/7 + 4/7 = b

35/7 + 4/7 = b

39/7 = b

The equation is

y = -1/7 x + 39/7
