The slope of the graph is 3 and the y intercept is 5.

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b;

where y, x are variables, m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept

Let y represent the height of the tree after x years.

The line passes through the point (0, 5) and (3, 14). Hence:

[tex]y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-5=\frac{14-5}{3-0} (x-0)\\\\y=3x+5[/tex]

Therefore the slope of the graph is 3 and the y intercept is 5.
