1. The equation of the line in slope intercept form is y = 7x – 2

   How to find the equation of a line?

   The equation of the line can be solved with the following equation.

   y = mx + b

   where

   • m = slope
   • b = y-intercept

   Therefore,

   m = -2  – 5 / 0 – 1 = -7 / -1

   m = 7

   Hence, using (1, 5)

   y = 7x + b

   5 = 7(1) + b

   5 – 7 = b

   b = -2

   Therefore,

   y = 7x – 2

   Hence, the equation of the line in slope intercept form is y = 7x – 2
