PSAT Math Grid-Ins Question 120: Answer and Explanation

Question: 120

What will be the new slope of the line y = 2x + 3 after it is translated 3 units to the right and 2 units down?

Correct Answer: 2

Explanation:

(2) Translating the line will merely shift it to the right and down. It will not affect the slope. Therefore, the slope will still be 2. Picture moving a line down and to the right on a graph. Does the slope change? No, so the slope remains the same.
