About the line 3y = 6x − 2, which of the following is correct?

  1. i. the slope is 6
  2. ii. the y-intercept is −2/3
  3. iii. the angle with the positive direction of the x-axis is acute

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a i and ii
  2. b i and iii
  3. c ii and iii
  4. d i, ii and iii
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: c ii and iii

y = 2x − 2/3: the slope is 2 (i false, not 6); the y-intercept is −2/3 (ii true); the slope is positive, so the angle is acute (iii true).

Why the other options are wrong

  • a i and ii: i is false: the slope is 2, not 6 And iii is true: the slope is positive
  • b i and iii: i is false: the slope is 2, not 6 And ii is true: y = 2x − 2/3
  • d i, ii and iii: i is false: the slope is 2, not 6 y = 2x − 2/3: the slope is 2 (i false, not 6); the y-intercept is −2/3 (ii true); the slope is positive, so the angle is acute (iii true).
