Question

Y+5=2(x+1) what is the slope for this Math

Answer 1

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form is

y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.y=mx+bRewrite in slope-intercept form.Simplify 2(x+1).Apply the distributive property.

y+5=2x+2⋅1

multiply 2 by 1.

y+5=2x+2

y+5=2x+2

Move all terms not containing y to the right side of the equation.Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation.

y=2x+2−5

y=2x−3

the slope is the "m" so the slope is 2
