The equation you provided is a linear equation in slope-intercept form:

$y = 3x - 5$

This equation represents a straight line, where:

• The slope $m = 3$, which means for every unit increase in $x$, $y$ increases by 3.
• The y-intercept $b = -5$, meaning the line crosses the y-axis at $y = -5$.

Would you like to explore more about this equation, such as graphing it or finding specific points on the line? Let me know!

Tip:

To graph a linear equation, plot the y-intercept first, then use the slope to find another point by moving right or left by the x-value and adjusting up or down according to the slope.
