Question

The graph of a function is a straight line with a slope of 2 and a y
-intercept of 7. What is the equation of the function? Write your answer in y=mx+b
form.(1 point)

1 answer

The equation of a function in slope-intercept form is given by the formula \( y = mx + b \), where \( m \) represents the slope and \( b \) represents the y-intercept.

Given that the slope (\( m \)) is 2 and the y-intercept (\( b \)) is 7, we can substitute these values into the formula:

\[ y = 2x + 7 \]

Thus, the equation of the function is \( y = 2x + 7 \).
