When the equation is given in the standard form: y = mx + c, the gradient is m.
So here, y = 7x + 2 means m, the gradient, is 7.

How do you work out the gradient of a perpendicular line?
basically the reciprocal of the original lines gradient is going to be the gradient for the perpendicular line (remember the signs should switch). For example if i had a line with the gradient of 3, then the gradient of the perpendicular line will be -1over3. But if the line had the gradient of -3, then the line perpendicular to that line will have the gradient 1over3.
How can you find equation of the line passing thruogh two points?
. the equation of a straight line can be found by using two points on a line . First find the gradient of the line using the gradient formula . now substitute the gradient into general form replacing "m" . use one of the points and substitute into equation to solve "c" example 1: find the equation of the line which passes through the points (1,3) and (2,5). step 1: find the gradient M=5-3/2-1=2 (/=divide) step 2: place m into the equation Y=2x+c step 3: substitute point into equation 3=2(1)+c step 4: solve C=1 equation is Y=2x+1 hope that helps :)
How do you find the gradient of a Linear Equation?
If necessary, rearrange the linear equation so that it is in the slope-intercept form: y = mx + c Then the gradient of the line is m.

Which graph represents the equation y equals 3x plus 2?
The one which shows a straight line with a positive gradient of 3 and crossing the y axis at 2.
How to calculate the gradient from the non linear graph?
Draw a tangent to the curve at the point where you need the gradient and find the gradient of the line by using gradient = up divided by across

How do you find the gradient of a line with the equation y equals 3x plus 2?
An equation such as y = mx + c is said to be in standard form. From such an equation, Gradient = coefficient of x = 3
How do you find the gradient of a straight line in a line graph?
See the many answers currently available. It equals the change in y divided by the corresponding change in x, as you go along any segment of the line.

How do you find the gradient of a line?
i think you do Vertical/horizontal
How do you find the average of a line plot?
divide by the gradient
What is the gradient of -y equals 7x plus 5?
The equation of the line is y = 7x + 5 The gradient = the slope of the line = dy/dx = 7, in this case. The y-intercept is 5. ========================
The slope-intercept equation of a line is y equals mx plus b where m is the slope of the line?
y = mx + c is the equation of a straight oblique line where m = gradient The gradient is a measue of the steepness of a line (or a measure of the slope of the line)

But if the line had the gradient of -3, then the line perpendicular to that line will have the gradient 1over3.
What is the slope for the equation y equals -3?
The slope (or gradient) of a vertical or horizontal line is zero.
What is y equals 8x?
y equals 8x is a straight line pasing through the origin (0,0) and having a gradient (slope) of 8 (i.e. gradient = "change in y" divided by "change in x" )
