Y=7x+3 because slope intercept form is y=mx+b where x is the slope and b is the y intercept so when you plug in the slope of 7 and the y intercept of 3 you get the equation y=7x+3.
5 is the answer................
I would guess they're referring to some general form first<span>f(x)=alog(x−h)+k</span>Where 'h' represents horizontal shifts, 'k' vertical shifts and 'a' stretches the function. "a" will also reflect the function across the x-axis if the value is negative. But NOT across the y-axis. I hope that's the place they wanted to put the a at least
