Answer:

[0, 10]

Explanation:

Plug the coordinates into the Slope-Intercept Formula. It does not matter which ordered pair you choose:

20 = 2[5] + b

10

10 = b

y = 2x + 10

__________________________________________________________

16 = 2[3] + b

6

10 = b

y = 2x + 10

** You see? I told you it did not matter which ordered pair you choose because you will always get the exact same result.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
