Explanation:

Hey there!

We know that the slope intercept is; y = mx+b.

Where "m" represents the slope. And "b" represents the y-intercept.

Example:

If the question is as; y = 3x +8

Then your slope of the slope intercept form is "3" where as "8" is y-intercept.

So, the variable"m" represents the slope.

Hope it helps...
