Answer:

y = 2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a generic linear equation is:

y = ax + b

where a is the slope of the function and b is the y-intercept.

So, if the slope is 2, we have that a = 2:

y = 2x + b

Then, we know that the line contains the point (3,5), so for x = 3, we need to find y = 5:

5 = 2*3 + b

5 = 6 + b

b = 5 - 6 = -1

So the equation is:

y = 2x - 1
