Slope-intercept form of linear equation: The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The given equation y=−1+3x can be compared to this form to identify the slope.
Identifying the slope: By comparing y=−1+3x to the slope-intercept form, we can see that the coefficient of x is 3. This coefficient represents the slope of the line.
Slope of the given equation: Therefore, the slope of the line given by the equation y=−1+3x is 3.
