Question

​ y=2x+3 y=−3x+3 ​ find slope and y-intercept

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 2x + 3  → Gradient / slope = 2 → Y - intercept = 3

y = -3x + 3 → Gradient / slope = -3 → Y - intercept = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + c

This is the standard way an equation of a line is written. The 'm' of the line is the slope/gradient and the 'c' is the y - intercept. You can find the x-intercept by making y = 0. When the questions asks you to find the gradient you should never put 'x' after it only the number so

y = 2x + 3

Gradient / slope = 2

Y - intercept = 3

y = -3x + 3

Gradient / slope = -3

Y - intercept = 3
