What does the "slope-intercept form" look like?

Asked by Graciee01

Answer (3)

Slope intercept form looks y=ax+b where a is slope and b is point of crossing our line and axis y. Slope is connected with incline of our line like a=tan(alpha)

The slope and y-intercept of a linear equation are crucial components in determining the characteristics of a straight line.
Slope and y-intercept of a Linear Equation:
For the linear equation y = a + bx, b = slope and a = y-intercept. The coefficient of x represents the slope, and the constant term represents the y-intercept. This form differs from the more commonly known slope-intercept form, y = mx + b.

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is expressed as y = m x + b , where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. This form is helpful for graphing and analyzing linear relationships. Understanding the slope and y-intercept allows us to determine how changes in the independent variable affect the dependent variable.
