Given:

The inequality is:


y>5x+3

To find:

The y-intercept, slope and type of line (solid or dotted).

Solution:

The slope intercept form of a line is:


y=mx+b ...(i)

Where, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

We have,


y>5x+3

The relation equation is:


y=5x+3 ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get


m=5


b=3

It means the slope is 5 and the y-intercept is 3.

The sign of the inequality in the given inequality is ">". It means the boundary line is not included in the solution set. So, the boundary line is a dotted line.

Therefore, the slope is 5, the y-intercept is 3 and the line is a dotted line.
