To write the equation of a line given the slope and y-intercept, you can use the slope-intercept form of a line, which is:

\[ y = mx + b \]

where:
- \( m \) is the slope,
- \( b \) is the y-intercept.

Given:
- Slope (\( m \)) = \(-\frac{2}{5}\)
- Y-intercept (\( b \)) = \(0\)

Substituting the values into the equation:

\[ y = -\frac{2}{5}x + 0 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ y = -\frac{2}{5}x \]

So, the equation of the line is:

\[ y = -\frac{2}{5}x \]
