Answer:

c) f(x) = 2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

slope  = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

 m = (15-7)/(5-1)

  m = 8/4

m=2

point slope form for an equation is

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-7 = 2 (x-1)

distribute

y-7 = 2x-2

add 7 to each side

y-7+7 = 2x-2+7

y = 2x +5

it asks for the equation in function notation

f(x) = 2x+5
