If we changed the 4 to a 2 in the equation, what would happen to the graph?

equation- y=4x+3

help pls

If we change the coefficient of x from 4 to 2 in the equation y = 4x + 3, the new equation would be y = 2x + 3.

Changing the coefficient of x would affect the slope of the graph. The slope of the original equation y = 4x + 3 was 4 since the coefficient of x was 4. The new equation y = 2x + 3 would have a slope of 2, which means the line would be less steep than the original one.

So, changing the 4 to a 2 in the equation y = 4x + 3 would make the line less steep with a slope that has been halved.
thanks bro
