Question 99240: derive the slope-intercept form of a linear equation from the slope formula using (o,b) as the coordinates of the point where the line crosses the y-axis and arbitrary point (x,y). Answer by scott8148(6628) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the slope is the change in y divided by the change in x ... ... ... mx=y-b ... mx+b=y ... y=mx+b
