Answer:

y = 1/3x + 5

Explanation:

Since the slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, you need to start by rewriting this in slope-intercept form, which you can write this as 3y = 15 + x. You get this by adding X to both sides.

Then, divide everything by Y, which in this case is 3.

3y Divided by 3 is 1, or Y.

15 Divided by 3 is 5.

x, or 1x, divided by three, is 0.3 forever repeating. However, you rewrite this as a fraction, due to slope-intercept form.

That's how you get the final answer, the final answer being y = 1/3x + 5.
