The equation of the line that passes through the points $(-2,0)$ and $(0,2)$ can be expressed in the form $y=mx+b$. What is the value of $m+b$?

(2, 0)     (0, 2)

 

Te slope of this line is      [ 2 - 0 ] / [ 0 -  - 2 ]  =   2 / 2   =   1

 

And the equation of the line is

 

y = 1 ( x + 2)

y  = 1x + 2

 

 

So....m + b  =    1  + 2   =   3
