Question 700224: I was trying to find the correct term, but I couldn't find it. What I need help on is "Solving systems by graphing" I understand it perfectly, just not when the equation is like this. y=2x. How am I supposed to find the slope for this? I use the formula y=mx+b .. I don't know how to solve it when it's in that format. Please help for that one problem so I won't have any trouble solving it in the future. Please & thank you!
