If a and b are real numbers and if y = ax + b is a direct variation equation, what do you know about a and b?

1 answer:

8 0

y = ax + b
We observe that the given equation is the generic equation of a line.
Where,
a = represents the slope of the line. That is, the rate of change of the given function. (in this case it is constant).
b = is the cut point with the y axis.
