Question

Write the equation of the line with a slope of 3 and y intercept of -5.

Answer 1

$\huge{\boxed{y=3x-5}}$

We will write this equation in slope-intercept form, which is $y=mx+b$, where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

Substitute in the values. $y=3x+(-5)$

Simplify the negative addition. $\boxed{y=3x-5}$
