Answer:
This is the slope intercept formula used for make a line graph
Explanation:
In the expression:
y = mx + b
m will equal your slope which is represented by rise/run
Example: 1/2, 2, 5, 3/8 etc.
b represents your y-intercept which is the point where the line hits the y-axis
For example: if the y - intercept is -2 then your line graph will cross through (0,-2) in the coordinate plane
All together, the equation for the line would look something like:
y = 1/2x - 2
Hope this helps! :D
