Question

A line passes through the point (-5, -7) and has a slope of 3. Write an equation for this line.

Answer 1

the equation is y=3x+8

Answer 2

Answer: y= 3x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

y= mx +b

y= 3x + b

Then, you substitute to solve for b: -5 as x and -7 as y

-7= 3(-5) +b

-7= -15 +b

8= b

So your answer is y= 3x +8
