Question

Which of the following is an equation of the line in the xy-plane that has slope 2 and passes through the point (0, 3) ?

  1. y = 2x + 3
  2. y = 2x − 3
  3. y = 2(x + 3)
  4. y = 2(x − 3)

The correct answer is: y = 2x + 3


    Hints:
    The concept used in this question is the concept of lines.
    Equation of line is given by y = mx + c
    Where y is y-coordinate, x is x-coordinate and c is the y-intercept (the point at which the line crosses the y -axis).
    The slope of the line is the angle it makes with the x-axis i. e θ
    The slope of line m is tan θ.
    Step by step explanation:
    Given:
    1. The line lies in the xy plane.
    2. The line has a slope of 2, i. e m = 2
    3. The line passes through the point (0, 3)
    Step 1:
    We know that the general equation of line lies in xy plane is given by,
    y = mx + c,
    where m is the slope of the line or gradient.
    So, according to the given information,
    The slope of the line is 2,
    ∴ m = 2.
    Step 2:
    Also,
    Line passes though point (0, 3)
    Therefore, point (0, 3) satisfy equation of line,
    ∴ y = mx + c
    ⇒ 3 = 2 × 0 + c
    ⇒ 3 = c
    ∴ y-intercept is 3.
    Step 3:
    Now, put the value of m and c in equation y = mx + c, we will get required equation of line.
    ⇒ y = 2x + 3
    Hence, the equation of required line is y = 2x + 3.
