What is slope-intercept form? Why do we write equations using this form?

Mathematics

Brums [2.3K]3 years ago

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept

the slope is the rate of change of the graph, basically rise/run (change in y divided by change in x)

the y intercept is where the graph intercepts the y axis





we usually use this form because we can find the slope and find where it hits the y axis.
there are other forms that may be helpful later on, but this one is usually the easiest form to find from a graph

Marysya12 [62]

The area of a triangle is 1/2 x base x height

Area = 1/2 x 24 x 28 = 336 square inches.

Because the corners are rounded the are would actually be just under 336 but no radius was given to get the exact area.
