Find the Equation Using Slope-Intercept Form m=5 and b=-3

$m = 5$ and $b = - 3$

Find the value of $b$ using the formula for the equation of a line.

$y = m x + b$

Replace the known value of $m$ in the slope y-intercept form of the equation.

$y = (5) \cdot x + b$

Replace the known value of $b$ in the slope y-intercept form of the equation.

$y = (5) \cdot x - 3$

Simplify the slope y-intercept form of the equation.

Remove parentheses.

$y = (5) \cdot x - 3$

Multiply $5$ by $x$ .

$y = 5 \cdot x - 3$

Remove parentheses.

$y = (5) \cdot x - 3$

Multiply $5$ by $x$ .

$y = 5 x - 3$
