Answer:

The answer is y = 4x - 1.

Explanation:

The answer is y = 4x - 1.

Explanation:

☆The equation we'll be using: y = mx + b

☆Since we already have the slope. we have to find the y-intercept.

☆\begin{gathered}y = mx + b \\ \\ 7 = 4(2) + b \\ 7 = 8 + b \\ \frac{ - 8 = - 8 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: }{ - 1 = b \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: } \end{gathered}

y=mx+b

7=4(2)+b

7=8+b

−1=b

−8=−8
