The correct answer is the third option: Y = 5x - 2
In the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b: m = slope (steepness of the line; the rate of change) b = y-intercept (the point on the graph where the line crosses the y-axis, and has coordinates of (0, b)).
Given these definitions: Since your slope = 5 and the y-intercept has coordinates of (0, -2), the -2 represents the “b” in the slope-intercept form.
