The slope of a line is 5 and passes through the point (2, -3).

If you are trying to find the y-intercept, what variable will be replaced with the number 2 in y = mx + b ?

• y

• m

• x

• b

If trying to find the y-intercept, what would be the next step?

• Subtract 2 from both sides

• Divide both sides by 2

• Add b and 7

• Multiply 2 and 7
