Which equation represents the line that has a slope of 5 and passes through (-3,-2)

Answer 1

Hi Janae B

y = 5x + 13

Is the equation of the line in Slope Intercept Form

Given the slope,m

m = 5

You can put the equation of the line in Slope Intercept Form

y = mx + b

y = 5x + b

Given that the line passes through the coordinates (-3, -2) we can use these to solve for b in the slope intercept form

y = 5x + b

-2 = 5(-3) + b

-2 = -15 + b

Add 15 to both sides of the equation above to solve for b

13 = b

The equation of the line in Slope Intercept Form

y = 5x + 13
