What is the equation of a line with slope 2 and y-intercept 3?
A.✓ Correct
y = 2x + 3
B.
y = 2x - 3
C.
y = 3x + 2
D.
y = -2x + 3
Detailed Explanation
Choice A is the best answer. y = mx + b where m = 2, b = 3
Why others are wrong:
B: y = 2x - 3 is incorrect because it does not satisfy the equation.
C: y = 3x + 2 is incorrect because it does not satisfy the equation.
D: y = -2x + 3 is incorrect because it does not satisfy the equation.
