Write in y=mx+b Form y+9=2(x+5)

$y + 9 = 2 (x + 5)$

Step 1

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Step 2

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

Simplify the right side.

Simplify $2 (x + 5)$ .

Apply the distributive property.

$y + 9 = 2 x + 2 \cdot 5$

Multiply $2$ by $5$ .

$y + 9 = 2 x + 10$

Move all terms not containing $y$ to the right side of the equation.

Subtract $9$ from both sides of the equation.

$y = 2 x + 10 - 9$

Subtract $9$ from $10$ .

$y = 2 x + 1$
