Question

Enter the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

Answer:

y=5x-23

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is: $y=mx+b$

'm' is the slope.

'b' is the y-intercept.

What we know:

• We are given the slope of 5.

• We are given a coordinate. (5,2)

What we need to do:

• We will use the coordinate and the slope to complete the equation.

Solving The Equation:

We are already given the slope of five. So, m = 5.

We are given a coordinate. So, to solve the y-intercept, we will use:

x = 5

y = 2

$2=5(5)+b\\\rightarrow5*5 =25\\2=25+b\\\rightarrow 2-25=25-25+b\\\boxed{-23=b}$

So, the y-intercept should be -23.

Your answer should be:

$y=5x-23$
