For instance I probably wouldnt try eye-balling the plot points for an equation like say y 00062x 37904. For the equation y mx b m is the slope of the line that is multiplied by x and b is the y-intercept or we can say the point where the line will cross the. The equations are written in the form y mx b where m is the.
It was changed to y -1x 12 so it will look like y mx b slope intercept form.
The equation of a horizontal line is y b where b is the y-intercept. In real life this may not work so well. Youll need to use the slope intercept formula 𝙔 𝙢𝙓 𝙗 where 𝙢 is the slope and 𝙗 is the Y-axis intercept when 𝙓 is zero. The equation can be in any form as long as its linear and and you can find the slope and y-intercept.
