Question

What are the gradients and y intercepts of the following equation

y= x/4 + 3

Answer 1

gradient: 1/4; y-intercept: 3

Explanation:

In math, 'gradient' is another word for slope.

Here we have y = (1/4)x + 3. The coefficient of x is the slope or gradient: 1/4. The y - intercept is 3: (0, 3).

Answer 2

Explanation:

The equation is in y = mx + b form.

Here, m is the slope or gradient and b is the y-intercept.

`y =(1)/(4)x+3\\\\\\Gradient =(1)/(4)`

y-intercept = 3
