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)
Change the number in front of the X, as that is the gradient.

Y=2x+c where c is arbitery constant
There are an infinity of lines passing through the point whose coordinates are (2,2), each with a different slope [gradient]. The equation of the line will be of the form (y - 2) = m*(x - 2) where m is the gradient.
The answer to that equation is 47.
The answer to that equation is 47.
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)
An equation such as y = mx + c is said to be in standard form. From such an equation, Gradient = coefficient of x = 3

Change the number in front of the X, as that is the gradient.
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.

y = -4x

If you have the equation, yes. If the equation is given in terms of x and y, make y the subject of the equation. That is, expres the equation in the form y = mx + c where m and c are constants. Then the gradient is m.
y = 11x + 5 The slope/gradient of this equation is 11. The slope/gradient can easily been seen in a linear equation: it is simply the co-efficient of x
