Question

Graph the equation: $y=3x+2$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

Graph of$y=3x+2$ is

Step 1. Give data

The given equation is

$y=3x+2$

Step 2. Properties of equation

Compare the equation with the standard form of the equation of a line 

$$\begin{gathered} y=3x+2 \\ y=mx+b \end{gathered}$$

So the line of equation will have a slope of $m=3$

and y-intercept is $(0,2)$

Step 3. Graph

Plot a line of slope $m=3$and y-intercept $(0,2)$ to plot the graph of $y=3x+2$
