Question

if y = mx + b, m = slope, b = y intercept. identify slop and y intercept. y = 2x + 3, slope = ? , yint = ?.

Answer 1

the slope is 2; the y-intercept is 3

Explanation:

We need to find the slope and the y-intercept of the following equation:

y = 2x + 3

Note that this equation is in the form of y = mx + b, which is commonly known as slope-intercept form. Here, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Therefore, the slope of this line is 2 and the y-intercept is 3.

Answer 2

slope = 2x

y-intercept = (0, 3)

Explanation:

y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y-intercept (the coordinate where it intersects through the y line)
