Answer:
Explanation:
Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b where m is your slope and b is your y-intercept.
To find your equation with what you are given, you have to plug in your values.
(-5, 6) = (x, y) so plug -5 in where there is x and 6 in where there is y
then your slope, m, is 2 so plug 2 in where there is m.
so it should look like
6=2(-5)+b, now you are solving for b.
6 = -10+b
+10 +10
___________
16 = b Then take the values and plug back into the slope intercept formula, y=mx+b.
Plug 16 in for b and 2 in for m (m represents slope and they told us the slope =2)
*you no longer need the y and x values because you only use those to solve for m or b, in this case b, so leave y and x in your equations*
y=2x+16
