First, let's choose two points from the table to solve for our slope.

(0, -1) and (1, 4)

Slope = (4 -(-1)) / (1 - 0) = 5/1 = 5

The slope of our line is equal to 5

So far we have y = 5x + b

To solve for be, we need to plug one of our points into the equation.

-1 = 5(0) + b

Simplify

-1 = b

So, our equation: y = 5x -1
