Question

a line passes through the point (-3,-5) and has a slope of 5 write an equation in point slope form for this line

Answer 1

Answer:

$y=5x+10$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Plug numbers into slope formula to find $b$.

$y=mx+b$

$-5=5(-3)+b$

2) Simplify to find $b$.

$-5=-15+b$

$10=b$

3) Check work.

$-5=-15+10$

This statement is true.

4) Write equation.

$y=5x+10$
