We are given the following equation of a line


y=3x+5

Recall that the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is given by


y=mx+b_{}

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line.

Comparing the given equation with the standard form, we see that the slope is 3


slope=m=3

Therefore, the slope of the given line is 3.
