Graphing from slope-intercept form y=mx+b

Graphing from slope-intercept form y=mx+b

In this lesson, we will teach you how to graph functions using the slope-intercept form (y = mx + c). It is an equation of a straight line or we can call it a linear equation.
Basic Concepts: Solving linear equations by graphing, Slope equation: m=y2−y1x2−x1m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2- x_1}, Slope intercept form: y = mx + b
Related Concepts: Introduction to linear equations, Graphing linear inequalities in two variables, Graphing systems of linear inequalities
