Slope

Let's go back to our y = mx + c equation, and remember that m is our slope, and c is our y-intercept.

By the same analogy, 6 is our slope and 5 is our y-intercept.

frequently asked question(s)

What is y = mx + c? It's slope intercept.

How to find m? Look at the number that appears just before x.

So, the slope has turned out to be 6, and 5 has turned out to be the y-intercept.
