Question

Y=2x-5, The slope is ............
0 0
D 2
2
o -5
0 -3​

Answer 1

The slope is 2.

Remember:

• the formula for the equation of the line is
y = mx + b

Where m = slope, b = y-intercept, and x & y are coordinates

So if

y = mx + b
y = 2x - 5

The 2 is in place of the m which is the slope.

In other words, 2 = m = slope


Therefore, slope is 2.

Answer 2

Answer: 2

Explanation:

The given equation is in slope-intercept form. It is y=mx+b. In this equation, m stands for slope and b stands for y-intercept. Looking back at the equation, we see that in place of m is 2. That tells us that the slope is 2.
