To find the linear equation that represents the nonproportional linear relationship given the points (-5, 0), (0, 5), and (2, 7), we can start by identifying the slope of the line.
First, we can calculate the slope (\(m\)) using the points (0, 5) and (2, 7):
\[ m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{7 - 5}{2 - 0} = \frac{2}{2} = 1 \]
Now that we have the slope, we can use the point-slope form of a linear equation, which is:
\[ y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) \]
Using the point (0, 5):
\[ y - 5 = 1(x - 0) \]
This simplifies to:
\[ y = x + 5 \]
Thus, the linear equation that represents this nonproportional linear relationship is:
y = x + 5.
So, the correct response is: y = x + 5.
