Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the equation for a line is given by

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

where m is the slope of the line. Since the line passes through the point (-6, 5), we can write our equation as

[tex]y = \frac{3}{2}x + b[/tex]

Putting the values of the point into our equation, we can solve for the constant b as follows:

[tex]5 = \frac{3}{2}(-6) + b[/tex]

or

[tex]b = 14[/tex]

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the equation for the line is

[tex]y = \frac{3}{2}x + 14[/tex]
