Q

Explain y=mx+b

A

The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept of this line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.

Q

How do you plot slope

A

Step 1: Put the equation in Slope Intercept Form.
Step 2: Graph the y-intercept point (the number in the b position) on the y-axis. …
Step 3: From the point plotted on the y-axis, use the slope to find your second point. …
Step 4: Draw your line using the two points you plotted (y-intercept (b) first, slope (m) second.
