Question

The line 2y = 4x + 6 is given. Find the slope and the coefficient.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The function that is given is not in the slope-intercept form, which should be the form that ease you to solve the problem.

• Slope-intercept form means [y=ax+b] where a is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

Solve:

2y=4x+6

Convert the function into slope-intercept form.

2y=4x+6

y=2x+3

y=ax+b

y=2x+3

a=2

b=3

The slope is 2 and the y-intercept (which I infer from the question should be the coefficient) is 3.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Do you mean the y-intercept/constant term? Just comment below and let me know what coefficient you mean :D

2y = 4x + 6

y = 2x + 3

Slope = Coefficient of x = 2, y-intercept = 3.
