Answer:

[tex]y = \frac{1}{5} x + 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

the general equation of a line is y=mx+c

because the slop is 1/5, the equation of this line would be

[tex]y = \frac{1}{5} x + c[/tex]

with the coordinates (20,5) , take 20=x and 5=y

and substitute these values into the equation above.

you should get:

5= 4 + c

so c = 1

therefore, the equation of the line is:

[tex]y = \frac{1}{5} x + 1[/tex]
