The m variable is the slope of the line and controls its 'steepness'. A positive value has the slope going up to the right. A negative slope goes down to the right. The b variable is the y intercept - the point where the line crosses the y axis.
example 1
y = mx + b
m = slope b = y-intercept
y = 3x - 1
m = 3 and b = -1
example 2
y = b + m<em>x</em><em> </em>
b = y-intercept m = slope
y = 5 - 1/2x
m =- 1/2 and b = 5

725 minus the 125 registration fee is 600. 600 divided by 12(months) equals 50 dollars a month for your answer.
Perimeter = 2( Length + Width)
<em>Given that Perimeter = 3 1/12 feet and Width = 2/3 foot, plug the values into the formula to find the length:</em>
3 1/12 = 2( Length + 2/3)
3 1/12 = 2Length + 4/3
2 Length = 3 1/12 - 4/3
2 Length = 7/4
Length = 7/4 ÷ 2
Length = 7/4 x 1/2
Length = 7/8
<em>Now that we know the length is 7/8 and the width is 2/3, find the area:</em>
Area = Length x Width
Area = (7/8)(2/3) = 7/12
Answer: Area = 7/12 ft²
