Write the equation of a line with a slope of 3 and a y-intercept of 1

OpenStudy (jade27p):

@mathmale would it be +1 for the y intercept

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Yes. The slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line is y=mx+b. If you let x=0, then y=1, or +1. Write the equation of a line with a slope of 3 and a y-intercept of 1: slope = m = 3; y-intercept = b = 1 subst. these values into y=mx+b.

OpenStudy (jade27p):

y=3x+1

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Great.
