Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
The short answer is no. b stands for some number. Once that number is fixed, it does not change. So the equation would look something like
y = 2x + 6 Now if you look at that again, that 6 is fixed.
If you want to put something in for x like x = 5 you get
y = 2(5) + 6
y = 10 + 6
y = 16 b = 6 did not change.
What does y = 2x equal
y = 2*5
y = 10
10 does not equal 16.
The only exception to what I've written is b = 0. Then both equations mean the same thing. But that is an exception.
