Question

Suppose the slope of a line is positive. What happens to the value of `x` as the value of `y` increases?

Answer 1

value of `x` increases as the value of `y` increases

Answer 2

The value of x increases as the value of y increases.

Explanation:

A line with a positive solve is a direct relationship

`y = mx + b`
Where m a positive value.

In a direct relationship an increase in one value will cause an increase in the other value.

So the value of x will increase as the value of y increases.
