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
