Find the Slope and y-intercept f(x)=2(x-3)

$f (x) = 2 (x - 3)$

Step 1

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify $2 (x - 3)$ .

Apply the distributive property.

$y = 2 x + 2 \cdot - 3$

Multiply $2$ by $- 3$ .

$y = 2 x - 6$

Step 2

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

Find the values of $m$ and $b$ using the form $y = m x + b$ .

$m = 2$

$b = - 6$

The slope of the line is the value of $m$ , and the y-intercept is the value of $b$ .

Slope: $2$

y-intercept: $(0, - 6)$

Slope: $2$

y-intercept: $(0, - 6)$
