Answer:

y=2x+5 slope: 2

Explanation:

Ok so basically we know that Taffy started out with 5 pounds. And then as every month progressed she got 2 more. Meaning you are adding to the 5 pounds she started out with. Slope is a rate and in this case it's per month she gets 2 more! Hope that makes sense
