What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (2, 5) and has a slope of 2?

y = 2x + 1

y = 2x + 3

y = 2x - 8

y = 2x - 3

So from the question they give you the slope m = 2 so now you have to use the slope-intercept formula to find the equation of the line that passes through those points. The slope-intercept formula is $$y-y1 = m(x-x1)$$  where y1 and x1 are your coordinates and solve for y. Good luck!
