Questions: Give the slope and the y-intercept of the line with the given equation. Then, graph the linear equation.
y=2x+8
Transcript text: Give the slope and the $y$-intercept of the line with the given equation. Then, graph the linear equation.
\[
y=2 x+8
\]
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the slope and y-intercept
The given equation is in the slope-intercept form \( y = mx + b \), where \( m \) is the slope and \( b \) is the y-intercept. For the equation \( y = 2x + 8 \), the slope \( m \) is 2, and the y-intercept \( b \) is 8.
Final Answer
The slope of the line is 2, and the y-intercept is 8.
