Question

The equation of a line is y equals 15x what is the gradient of the line

Answer 1

`\huge\boxed{\sf Slope = 15}`

Explanation:

Given equation:

y = 15x

Standard form of slope-intercept equation:

y = mx + c

Where m is slope and c is y-intercept.

Comparing both equations, we get:

Slope = m = 15

`\rule[225]{225}{2}`

Answer 2

gradient = 15

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the gradient abd c the y- intercept )

y = 15x , that is y = 15x + 0 ← is in slope- intercept form

with gradient m = 15
