We need to find an equation in the form [tex]y=mx+b[/tex].

To find [tex]m[/tex], we use the formula:
[tex]m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

We'll use the points [tex](0, 25)[/tex] and [tex](4, 37)[/tex]:
[tex]m=\frac{37-25}{4-0}=\frac{12}{4}=3[/tex]

The value of [tex]b[/tex] (the y-intercept) is the value of [tex]y[/tex] when [tex]x=0[/tex], which is 25.

So the equation is [tex]y=3x+25[/tex] (choice A).

Answer:

Standard form:  -3x + y = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

y = 3x + 25    ... you want to convert to standard form (Ax+By=C)

-3x     -3x       ... you want the variables on the left side of the equation

-3x + y = 25
