Write an equation of the straight line whose slope is 2 and whose y-intercept is the same as that of the line represented by the equation y=4x-2. What is it ?
To write the equation of a straight line, we need two pieces of information: the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b).
In the given question, we are told that the slope is 2 and the y-intercept is the same as that of the line represented by y = 4x - 2.
The y-intercept of the line represented by y = 4x - 2 is -2.
Therefore, the equation of the straight line with a slope of 2 and the same y-intercept is:
y = mx + b
Substituting the given values:
y = 2x - 2
Hence, the equation of the straight line is y = 2x - 2.
