So let's look at first what slope-intercept form is. Slope intercept form is actually y equals mx plus b. The reason why it is called slope intercept form is because it gives a slope and an intercept.
The y-intercept is the point at which a linear equation crosses the y-axis on the x=0 plot point. The equation to determine both the slope and the y-intercept of a line is y=mx+b. This calculation may ...
