find the equation of the line with slope = 8 and passing through (6,53) write your equation in the form y=mx+b

y = 8x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope - intercept form is

y = mx + b (m is the slope and b the y - intercept)

here m = 8, hence

y = 8x + b ← is the partial equation

To find b substitute (6, 53) into the partial equation

53 = 48 + b ⇒ b = 53 - 48 = 5

y = 8x + 5 ← equation in slope - intercept form
