Answer:

m = 6

b = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure of an equation in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this equation, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept. To determine these variables, you need to rearrange/simplify the given equation.

10 + 4x + 3 + 2x = y                 <---- Original equation

10 + 3 + 4x + 2x = y                 <---- Rearrange

13 + 4x + 2x = y                       <---- Combine 10 and 3

13 + 6x = y                               <---- Combine 4x and 2x

y = 6x + 13                              <---- Rearrange

As you can now see, the number in the "m" position is (6) and the number in the "b" position is (13).
