Question

What is the slope of (y−2)=3(x−1)

Answer 1

m = 3

Explanation:

to solve this you should first remove and or distribute the parenthesis

y - 2 = 3x - 3

now add 2 to both sides

y = 3x - 1

the equation of a line in slope intercept is y = mx + b

m is the slope

we can see that that is 3

so the slope is 3

Answer 2

Answer: 3

Explanation:

This equation is given to us in point-slope form.

The slope is m in (y -
`y_1`) = m(x -
`x_1`)

(y−2)=3(x−1) ➜ The slope is 3.
