Question

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

Answer: y=5x-3

Explanation:

y=mx+b

find slope. (1, 2) (2, 7)

y-y1/x-x1

5/1=5

y=5x+b.

substitute in one ordered pair (choose either one, it doesn't matter since both pairs are on the line)

2=5*1+b

2=5+b

-3=b

Put it together

y=5x-3
