The correct Answer is:
To find the equation of a line with a given slope and y-intercept, we can use the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, which is given by: \[ y = mx + c \] where: - \( m \) is the slope of the line, - \( c \) is the y-intercept. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the slope and y-intercept**: - The slope \( m \) is given as \( \frac{1}{2} \). - The y-intercept \( c \) is given as \( 5 \). 2. **Substitute the values into the equation**: - We substitute \( m \) and \( c \) into the slope-intercept form: \[ y = \frac{1}{2}x + 5 \] 3. **Write the final equation**: - Therefore, the equation of the line is: \[ y = \frac{1}{2}x + 5 \] ### Final Answer: The equation of a line with slope \( \frac{1}{2} \) and making an intercept \( 5 \) on the y-axis is: \[ y = \frac{1}{2}x + 5 \]
