Question

What is the slope of the line?
y + 1 = 3(2x - 4)

Answer 1

Answer: 6

Explanation:

Let's start by getting the equation to slope intercept form

First simplify

`y + 1 = 3(2x - 4)\\\\y+1=6x-12`

Then get y by itself

`y+1-1=6x-12-1\\y=6x-13`

In slope intercept form y=mx+b, m is the slope

In this case the slope is 6
