For the equation y=7x+3 the value of X changes from 1 to 2

When x=1, 7x+3 = 10. When x=2, 7x+3 = 17. When the value of 'x' changes from '1' to '2', the value of 7x+3 changes from '10' to '17' . . . a distance of '7' . That's what the ' 7x ' in the equation means, and that's what we mean when we say that the 'slope' of the equation is '7'. 'y' changes '7' for every '1' that 'x' changes. Hope this helps :))

When x=2, 7x+3 = 17.

When the value of 'x' changes from '1' to '2', the value of 7x+3 changes
from '10' to '17' . . . a distance of '7' .

That's what the ' 7x ' in the equation means, and that's what we mean
when we say that the 'slope' of the equation is '7'. 'y' changes '7' for
every '1' that 'x' changes.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

If m > 0 , then line slopes upwards from left to right

If m < 0 , then line slopes downwards from left to right

y = 3x - 2

has m > 0 and c = - 2 , thus line slopes upwards crossing the y- axis at - 2

y = - 2x + 3
