y=mx+b [The slope-intercept form of a linear equation]
\n" ); document.write( "y=any y value
\n" ); document.write( "m=the slope of the line
\n" ); document.write( "x=any corresponding x value
\n" ); document.write( "b = the y-intercept -- where the line crosses the y-axis at point (0, b)
\n" ); document.write( ".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y=4x+1
\n" ); document.write( "So, the slope (m) = 4 or 4/1 or -4/-1
\n" ); document.write( "The y-intercept = (0, 1).\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "To graph, start at the y-intercept (0,1) and follow the slope (4/1). That is, go up 4 spaces and to the right one space.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Next, return to the y-intercept (0,1) and follow the other form of the slope (-4/-1). That is, go down 4 spaces and to the left one space.
