Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

v² = u² + 2as

v = 5

u = 2

s = 7

Step 2: Evaluate

Subtract u² on both sides:                    v² - u² = 2asDivide 2s on both sides:                       (v² - u²)/(2s) = aRewrite:                                                  a = (v² - u²)/(2s)Substitute:                                              a = (5² - 2²)/(2 · 7)Exponents:                                             a = (25 - 4)/(2 · 7)Multiply:                                                  a = (25 - 4)/14Subtract:                                                 a = 21/14Simplify:                                                  a = 3/2

Y=-2x-6 is the answer
