y=2x-1

Explanation:

"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form" is.

•color(white)(x)y=mx+b

"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept"

"here "m=2

rArry=2x+blarrcolor(blue)"is the partial equation"

"to find b substitute "(3,5)" into the partial equation"

5=6+brArrb=5-6=-1

rArry=2x-1larrcolor(red)"in slope-intercept form"
