Objective 3Try ItWrite the equation of the linear function whose graph has a slopeof 5 and contains the point (1, 12).Begin by substituting the given values into the slope-intercept form.The slope of the line is ________; therefore, m ________.The line passes through the point ( ________, ________); therefore,x ________ and y ________.y mx b________ ________ • ________ b________ ________ b5 5________ bFinally, substitute the given value for m, ________, and the value youhave just found for b, ________ , into the slope-intercept form of theequation.y mx by ________x ________The slope of the line is 5; therefore, m 5. The line passes through thepoint (1, 12); therefore, x 1 and y 12.y mx b12 5 • 1 b12 5 b5 517 bFinally, substitute the given value for m, 5, and the value you have just foundfor b, 17, into the slope-intercept form of the equation.y mx by 5x 1783
