(5, 300) is one point (x, y). x = 5, y = 300.
To do this fully, you would still need to know either the slope or the y-intercept. Anyway, given your details, the best you can do is write an equation with two unknowns (m=slope, b=y-intercept).
The answer is the following:
300 = 5m + b
You can't reduce this further unless you are given more information (such as the slope being 1/5, or the y-intercept being the origin, for example).

this is a point (5,300)
the first one is x and second one is y
it means x= 5 & y = 300
if you want to solve it just do that ;
if y = mx + b so;
300 = m(5) +b
5m +b = 300
thats all.
good luck.

(x, y) are coordinates, so x = 5 and y = 300
this gives 300 = 5m + b
You likely have another item of information that would allow you to find the slope or y-intercept

in algebra, numbers are listed (x,y) not (y,x).
so x=5 and y=300
so 300= m(5) + b
so m+b=60
you must know either m or b in order to solve.

(x, y) = (5, 300)
300=m*5+b
That's all you can do with what you've got!
