Question

Graph the line y=−3x+b if it is known that the graph goes through point:
b
B(5, 2)

Answer 1

Answer: y=-3x+17

b = 17

Answer 2

The graph of the line represented by the equation y = -3x + b through B = (5, 2) is attached

How to graph the line represented by the equation

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

y = -3x + b

Also, we have

B = (5, 2)

This means that

-3 * 5 + b = 2

So, we have

-15 + b = 2

Evaluate

b = -17

So, the equation to plot is y = -3x + 17
