What is the slope and y-intercept for y=2x+3?

Question

harsha19111999 · Answer

compare the equation with y=mx+c

harsha19111999 · Answer

m is the slope. m=2. therefore slope=2

anonymous · Answer

Okay so this?;
y=(2)2+3
y=4+3
y=7?
No, that isn't an option. I'm so confused...

harsha19111999 · Answer

Wait where from did you get all other values? like x,c

anonymous · Answer

I have no idea. I'm just so confused with the whole thing.

harsha19111999 · Answer

see you have the equation as  y=2x+3. compare it with y=mx+c. Here m is the slope and c is the y intercept

harsha19111999 · Answer

You asked for slope and y-intercept, so slope=2 and y intercept c=3

Did u understand?

nincompoop · Answer

CLEARLY from the format, SLOPE is the value of m and the Y-INTERCEPT is the value of b

anonymous · Answer

Let's put it to you this way. fro the equation y = mx +c,

m( the co-efficient of x) is your slope and c ( your constant is your y-intercept).

dang it.... to answer your question you would need to know what a slope and y-intercept mean in general first. You apparently don't know....

anonymous · Answer

I know what they mean. Y-intercept is where the line crosses the y axis. Slope is like an elevated line on one side.

anonymous · Answer

yes.. so where are you getting stuck?
