Question

Write the equation of the line with a slope of 3 and y intercept of -5.

Answer 1

`\huge{\boxed{y=3x-5}}`

We will write this equation in slope-intercept form, which is
`y=mx+b`, where
`m` is the slope and
`b` is the y-intercept.

Substitute in the values.
`y=3x+(-5)`

Simplify the negative addition.
`\boxed{y=3x-5}`
