To write the equation of a line given its slope \( m = 6 \) and y-intercept \( b = -5 \), we use the slope-intercept form of a line, which is given by:
\[
y = mx + b
\]
Substituting the given values of \( m \) and \( b \):
\[
y = 6x - 5
\]
Thus, the correct equation of the line is:
**D.** \( y = 6x - 5 \)
\[
y = mx + b
\]
Substituting the given values of \( m \) and \( b \):
\[
y = 6x - 5
\]
Thus, the correct equation of the line is:
**D.** \( y = 6x - 5 \)
