Find the equation of a line that passes through (1,5) and has a slope of 3

1. The slope is given as 3.

2. The point given is (1, 5).

3. Plug in the values into the equation y = mx + b:

5 = 3(1) + b

Simplify and solve for b:

5 = 3 + b

Subtract 3 from both sides:

5 - 3 = b

b = 2

4. The equation can now be written as:

y = 3x + 2
