Find a slope-intercept form equation for the line.
-Through $( 0,5 )$, with slope $\frac { 2 } { 3 }$
A) $y = \frac { 2 } { 3 } x - 5$
B) $y = \frac { 2 } { 3 } x + 5$
C) $y = 5 x + \frac { 2 } { 3 }$
D) $y = 5 x - \frac { 2 } { 3 }$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The slope-intercept form of a line is $y = mx + b$, where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept. Given the slope $\frac{2}{3}$ and passing through $(0,5)$, the y-intercept $b$ is 5. Thus, the equation is $y = \frac{2}{3}x + 5$.
