Question

37. What is the slope of the equation ?
-3
y = x + 2

HELP! answer if you can!​

Answer 1

Slope =1

Explanation:

Method 1 : Standard form method

`y = x + 2\\\mathrm{Convert\:to\:standard\:form}:\quad x-y=-2\\\\\mathrm{Slope}\:\mathbf{m}\:\mathrm{of\:a\:line\:of\:the\:form}\:\\\mathbf{Ax+By=C}\:\mathrm{equals}\:\mathbf{-(A)/(B)}\\\\\mathbf{A}=1,\:\mathbf{B}=-1\\m=-(1)/(-1)\\m=1`

Method 2 : Slope -intercept Form

`\mathrm{Slope\:of\:}y=x+2:\\\mathrm{For\:a\:line\:equation\:for\:the\:form\:of\:} :\\\mathbf{y=mx+b}\mathrm{,\:the\:slope\:is\:}\mathbf{m}\\\\m=1`
