Explain how to write the equation y – 2 = 5(x + 7) in slope-intercept form.

Question

really need answer confused not smart.

Answer 1

Slope intercept form is y = mx+b.

Here m represents slope and b represents y intercept.

y-2 = 5(x+7)

y-2 = 5x+35

Add 2 to each side.

y-2+2 = 5x+35+2

y = 5x+37

m = 5, b = 37.
