A linear function has a slope of 8/3 and passes through the point (0,5). What is the equation of the line?

This problem already gave us the slope and y-intercept, so all that's left to do is plug those two values into slope-intercept form.

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

---m is the slope

---b is the y-intercept

y = 8/3x + 5

Hope this helps!! :)
