Question

the line y = x is transformed into the line y = 2x + 3. fill in the blanks to describe the slope and y - intercept of the new line. the slope is ?, and the line is shifted. flatter steeper

Explanation:

Step1: Identify new slope

For line $y=mx+b$, $m$ is slope. For $y=2x+3$, $m=2$.

Step2: Compare slopes

Original slope: $1$, new slope: $2$. Since $2>1$, line is steeper.

Answer:

The slope is $2$,
and the line is shifted steeper.
