Work out m and c for the line: y = 2 x - 1

m = 2 and c = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope - intercept form is

y = mx + c (m is the slope and c the y - intercept)

y = 2x - 1 ← is in slope - intercept form

with m = 2 and c = - 1

c (intercept) = - 1 m (gradient) = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The intercept is where the line crosses x, and the value is the value of y.

The gradient is how far it has covered and if you were to draw a graph it would be 2.
