Solution

The correct option is B C=3h+5
To write the equation of a straight line, we require its slope and coordinates of a point on it.
Here, point (5,0) lies on the line.
Also, the slope of the line can be found out using y2y1x2x1=8510=3 where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) lie on the line.
Thus, the equation of the required line becomes y=5x+s
When substituted (5,0) we get 5=s
Thus, the equation of line is C=3h+5
