Question 39744: Please help me solve this!
If the slope of the line is 2 and its y-intercept is 5, what is the equation of the line?

Answer by Fermat(136)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The equation of any straight line can be written as,
y = mx + c
where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept
We are given the slope as 2, so m = 2.
We are given the y-intercept as 5, so c = 5
Substituting for m =2 and c = 5 into the general equation of a straight line we get,
y = 2x + 5
