Question

What is the aswer to ....y=3x+30

Answer 1

Solve y-3x+30 = 0

Explanation:

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line y-3x+30 = 0 and calculate its properties

Answer 2

The equation is written in slope intercept form [ y = mx + b ]

m = slope

b = y-intercept

Using what I wrote above, we can see that:

m = 3

b = 30

Best of Luck!
