Answer: m=5 b=12
Explanation:
This equation is already set up in slope intercept form of y=mx+b.
So y=5x+12 would mean that 5= slope and 12= y-intercept. They just wanted you to be able to identify the slope and y-intercept from the equation given.
If you look at another example like: y=12x+6 then the slope would be = 12 and the y-intercept would be = 6.
