Write an equation of the line with the given slope and containing the given point. Write the equation in the slope-intercept form y = mx + t . slope 3, through (5, 1)
start with the point-slope form, since that's what they gave you.
y-1 = 3(x-5)
Now just rearrange that to the form you want.
y-1 = 3(x-5)
Oobleck is correct.
