Question

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx b, where x and y are coordinates of an ordered pair, m is the slope of the line, and b is where the line crosses the y-axis. which is an equivalent equation solved for the slope, m?

Answer 1

Answer: Option B

(B) m = Y - B / X

m = m equals StartFraction y minus b Over x EndFraction.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:
`m=(y-b)/(x)`

Explanation:

Given: The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is
`y = mx+ b`, where x and y are coordinates of an ordered pair, m is the slope of the line, and b is where the line crosses the y-axis.

To solve the above equation for m , first we subtract b from both sides in the above equation, we get

`y-b=mx`

Now for the second step, we divide x on both sides of the equation, we get

`m=(y-b)/(x)`

Hence, the equivalent equation solved for the slope, m will be :

`m=(y-b)/(x)`
