Answer: 2

Explanation:

remember y=mx^2+c

where m = gradient = slope

∴ expand and simplify y-5=2(x+3)

y-5=2x+6

y=2x+11

m=2 ∴ slope: 2

*Remember that slope : is y=mx+b
And m is slope and b is the y-intercept -

In this equation y-6=2(x+3)
m is 2 because if u multiply 2 to (x+3) it will become 2x+6
since m is 2 and b is 6
The slope is 2
And the y-int. is 6

So the slope is 2.
