Answer:
y = 2x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b The point (-2,3) gives us an x value and a y value that we can use. We are also give the slope (m). All we need to do is figure out the b (y-intercept) value.
y = mx + b
3 = 2(-2) + b
3 = -4 + b Add for to both sides
7 = b We know have every thing that we need to write the equation. We have the slope (m) which is 2 and the b (y-intercept) that we just figured out is 7
y = 2x + 7
Explanation:
If your actual answer is very far from your estimate, you probably made a mistake somewhere.

<em>Additional comment</em>
50 years ago, when a slide rule was the only available calculation tool, making an estimate of the result was a required part of doing the calculation. Not only were the first one or two significant digits needed, but also the power of 10 that multiplied them. Use of a slide rule required the order of magnitude be computed separately (by hand) from the significant digits of the result.

You may also find it useful to estimate the error in your estimate. That is, you may want to know the approximate answer to 2 (or more) significant digits in order to gain confidence that your calculation is correct.
