Answer:
y = -3x + 17
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, you have to put the given equation into slope intercept form.
Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
Solve:
y - 2= -3(x - 5)
Use the distributive property to distribute the -3 to the variables inside the parenthesis.
y - 2 = -3x + 15
Add 2 to both sides to get "y" by itself.
y = -3x + 17
The slope intercept form of the line would be y = -3x + 17
You would count on.

Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
The distributive property does not appear to be involved in this question.
Let n represent the number of Noah's pencils. Then Andrew's total is ...
3n +5 = 17
3n = 12 . . . . . subtract 5 from both sides
n = 4 . . . . . . divide both sides by 3
Noah has 4 pencils.
