because this has 2 unknowns it cannot be solved.
but I can write x in terms of b
2x = 13-b
or x =(13-b)/2

X=(13-b)/2........b=13-2X

there are many possibilities.
x could equal 6 and b=1
x=5 b=3
x=4 b=5
x=3 b=7
x=2 b=9
x=1 b=11
x=0 b=13
then if you keep adding two to b and minus 1 from x then it will be correct

If this is a slope-intercept equation, you use the x-coordinate to plug into the variable x after u plug it in u solve for b.
for example: if the coordinates are (1,13), then the equation is
2*1+b=13
2+b=13
b=11

this is a straight line equation. It can be written in the form of Y=mx+b. m= the slope b= y intercept x and y = points on the line. Draw the graph that fits your data and read off x and b

if u are suposed to be using standard from, y=mx+b
b= y intercept
m=slope
x,y= points
