Answer:
y = 3x - 5
Explanation:
Find the slope of the line between (0,−5)(0,-5) and (3,4)(3,4) using m=y2−y1x2−x1m=y2-y1x2-x1, which is the change of yy over the change of xx.
m=3m=3
Use the slope 33 and a given point (0,−5)(0,-5) to substitute for x1x1 and y1y1 in the point-slope form y−y1=m(x−x1)y-y1=m(x-x1), which is derived from the slope equation m=y2−y1x2−x1m=y2-y1x2-x1.
y−(−5)=3⋅(x−(0))y-(-5)=3⋅(x-(0))
Simplify the equation and keep it in point-slope form.
y+5=3⋅(x+0)
Add xx and 00.
y+5=3xy+5=3x
Subtract 55 from both sides of the equation.
y=3x−5
