Answer:

x = y-b/m

Explanation:

Step 1: y = mx + b

Step 2: Bring b to the left side of the equation

Step 3: y - b = mx

Step 4: To isolate for x, we must get rid of m. Therefore, divide m on both sides of the equation

Step 5: y-b/m = mx/m

Step 6: On the right side of the equation, m and m crosses out.

Step 7: All we have left is: y-b/m = x

(Or you can write it as x = y-b/m)

Hope this helps.
