Answer:

y = 5x - 39

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

m - slope

b - y-intercept

Put the value of slope m = 5 and the coordinates of the given point (8, 1) to the equation of a line:

[tex]1=(5)(8)+b[/tex]

[tex]1=40+b[/tex]            subtract 40 from both sides

[tex]-39=b\to b=-39[/tex]

Finally:

[tex]y=5x-39[/tex]
