Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
It makes a sense. It is the equation of a straight line in slope intercept form.
We use this formula when need to find the equation of a st.line passing through point or to find the slope from the equation.
In this equation "m" represents slope of a line, "x" is a variable, "b" is the constant value, and "y" is a also a variable.
Example:
Find slope from the equation y= 3x+5.
》Solution,
Given;
y = 3x+5.....(i)
Comparing the equation with y =mx+b, we get;
slope (m)= 3.
Hope it helps..
