Question

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation f(t) =2t-6

Answer 1

Explanation:

The slope is 2 and the y intercept is -6

Answer 2

The slope is 2.

Explanation:

The given line has equation:
`f(t)=2t-6`.

This is a linear equation in
`t`.

The slope is the coefficient of the independent variable
`t`.

The coefficient of
`t` in
`f(t)=2t-6` is 2.

Therefore the slope is 2.

Alternatively,
`f(t)=2t-6` is of the form
`f(t)=mt+c`, where
`m=2` is the slope.
