Question

What are m and b in the linear equation y=30x + 20​

Answer 1

Answer:

m = 30, b = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The equation is written in slope-intercept form, so it follows the following equation: y = mx + b, where y = y-coordinate, m = slope, x = x-coordinate, and b = slope.

2. As you can see, 30 is the value that took the place of m, and 20 is the value that took the place of b.

Therefore, m is 30 and b is 20.

Answer 2

Hi there!

I believe your answer is:  

m = 30

b = 20

Here’s why:  

⸻⸻⸻⸻

$\boxed{\text{General Slope-Intercept Form}}\\\\y=mx + b$

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The 'm' is the slope and 'b' is the 'y-intercept'.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The '30' takes place for 'm', so it is the slope of the equation. The '20' is in the 'b' spot, so it is the y-intercept.

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.
