The equation of a line in slope-intercept form, is:


y=mx+b

Where the coefficient of x, m, is the slope of the line, and the constant term b is the y-intercept.

By comparing this equation with the given one:


y=3x+5

notice that the coefficient of x is 3, which is the slope of the line.

Therefore, the slope of the line is 3.
