Find a linear function whose graph has slope 5 and y-intercept (0,7)
\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "Use the slope-y-intercept form:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "y = mx + b\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "where m = the slope, 5, and b = the y-coordinate of the y-intercept,\r\n" );
document.write( "which is 7.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So y = mx + b becomes\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "y = 5x + 7\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "That's the answer unless your teacher wants it in functional\r\n" );
document.write( "notation, and if he does then change the y to f(x),\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "f(x) = 5x + 7\r\n" );
