What is the equation of the line y = 3x + 5?

y = x + 3
y = 3x + 2
y = 2x + 3
y = 5x + 3

The correct answer is: y = 5x + 3

This is the equation of a line in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. In this equation, m = 3 and b = 5. This means that the slope of the line is 3 and the y-intercept is 5. Option A, y = x + 3, has a slope of 1 and a y-intercept of 3. This means it is a different line than the given equation. Option B, y = 3x + 2, has a slope of 3 and a y-intercept of 2. This is also a different line than the given equation. Option C, y = 2x + 3, has a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of 3. This is yet another different line than
