What is the slope of the line y=3x+2?

  1. 0

  2. 1

  3. 2

  4. 3

The correct answer is: 1

The slope of a line is represented by the coefficient of the x-term. In the given equation, the coefficient of x is 3, which is the slope. Option A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not match the slope value of 3. Option A and C have a slope of 0 and 2, respectively, which are both different from the value of 3. Option D has a slope of 1, which is half the value of the actual slope of 3. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
