Find the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line that passes through the given points.
-$\mathrm{f}(10)=0, \mathrm{f}(0)=5$
A) $f(x)=-2 x+5$
B) $f(x)=-\frac{1}{2} x-5$
C) $f(x)=\frac{1}{2} x+5$
D) $f(x)=-\frac{1}{2} x+5$

The slope $m$ can be calculated using the points $(10,0)$ and $(0,5)$ as $m = \frac{0-5}{10-0} = -\frac{1}{2}$. Using the point-slope form and one of the points, for example, $(0,5)$, we get the equation $f(x) = -\frac{1}{2}x + 5$.
