Answer 3

y=5x+2

Answer 4

y = mx+b

y = 5x + b ... plug in m = 5 (the slope)

7 = 5*(1) + b ... plug in the given point (x,y) = (1,7)

7 = 5 + b

7-5 = b

2 = b

b = 2

-------------------------------------------------------

m = 5 is the slope
b = 2 is the y-intercept

-------------------------------------------------------

y = mx+b turns into y = 5x + 2
