Answer:


\implies\boxed{\rm \red{ Slope (m)= 3 }}

Explanation:

Given :-

  • A equation of a line .

  • \rm y = 3x - 5

And we need to find out the gradient of the line . Gradient of line is nothing but the slope of the line . The given equation is in slope intercept form , so we can find out the slope by comparing .

Slope Intercept form :-


\rm\implies y = mx + c

  • Here m is the slope of the line.

Given equation :-


\rm\implies y = 3x - 5

On comparing :-


\implies\boxed{\rm \red{ Slope (m)= 3 }}

Hence the slope of the line is 3 .

Answer:

gradient m = 3

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the gradient and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x - 5 ← is in slope- intercept form

with gradient m = 3
