Answer:


  • \bold{y=(5)/(9) x+7}

Solution:

Hi! We have all the information required for solving this problem.

Just remember that the slope-intercept formula looks like this:


\large\textbf{y\,=\,mx\,+\,b}

Where:


  • \bold{m= > slope}

  • \bold{b= > y-intercept}

Plug in the values. Use 7 for b.


  • \bold{y=(5)/(9) x+7}

Problem solved! It's been a pleasure helping you.

ANSWER


\text{ y = }(5)/(9)x\text{ + 7}

Step-by-step explanation

We are to find the question of the line with slope (m) of 5/9 and y interecept (0,7)

To do this, we use the slope-intercept formula:


\begin{gathered} y-y_1=m(x-x_1)_{} \\ \text{where } \\ y_1=\text{ 7} \\ x_1\text{ = 0} \end{gathered}

Therefore, we have that:


\begin{gathered} y\text{ - 7 = }(5)/(9)(x\text{ - 0)} \\ y\text{ - 7 = }(5)/(9)x \\ \Rightarrow\text{ y = }(5)/(9)x\text{ + 7} \end{gathered}

That is the equation of the line.
