The line y = 5x/3 + b goes through the point (7, –1). What is the value of b?	Choose the correct choice from the following choices:	A) 3	B) –5/3	C) –7/5	D) 16/3	E) –38/3
“finding the equation” procedure. Plug (x, y) = (7, –1) into this equation:   {-1} = {{5(7)}/3} + b = {35/3} + b   b = {-35/3} - 1 = {-35/3} - {3/3} = -{38/3}   Answer = –38/3
