1. Describe the steps to graph the equation y = 2x + 3.

To graph the equation y = 2x + 3, you can follow these steps:
1. Choose a few values of x to substitute into the equation to find the corresponding values of y.
2. Plot the points (x, y) on a graph.
3. Draw a straight line that connects the points.

2. What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept (the point where the line crosses the y-axis).

3. How can you determine the slope and y-intercept of a linear equation from its equation in slope-intercept form?

In the equation y = mx + b, the slope (m) is the coefficient of x, and the y-intercept (b) is the constant term. So, you can determine the slope and y-intercept directly from the equation.
