N the slope-intercept form you use the slope of the line and the y-intercept to express the linear function.
y=mx+b
y=mx+b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Example
Graph the equation
y−2x=1
y−2x=1
rewrite in slope-intercept form
y=2x+1
y=2x+1
Identify the slope and the y-intercept
m = 2 and b = 1
Plot the point corresponding to the y-intercept, (0,1)
picture23
The m-value, the slope, tells us that for each step to the right on the x-axis we move 2 steps upwards on the y-axis (since m = 2)

And once you have your second point you can just draw a line through the two points and extend it in both directions.
picture25
You can check to see that the line you've drawn is the correct one by substituting the coordinates of the second point into the original equation. If the equation holds true than the second point is correct.
Our second point = (1, 3)
y−2x=1
y−2x=1
3−2⋅1=3−2=1
3−2⋅1=3−2=1
Our second point is a solution to the equation i.e. the line we drew is correct.
A line that passes through the origin has a y-intersect of zero, b = 0, and represents a direct variation.
y=mx
y=mx
In a direct variation the nonzero number m is called the constant of variation.
You can name a function, f by using the function notion
f(x)=mx+b
f(x)=mx+b
f(x) is another name for y and is read as "the value of f at x" or "f of x". You can use other letters than f to name functions.
A group of functions that have similar characteristics are called a family of functions. All functions that can be written on the form f(x) = mx + b belong to the family of linear functions.
The most basic function in a family of functions is called the parent function. The parent function of all linear functions is
f(x)=x

Answer:
The equation above represents the total time the play director spent preparing for a play.
Step-by-step explanation:
The time spent by the play director for preparing for a play is, 190 hours.
Of these 190 hours, the director spent varying amounts of time attending 35 rehearsals for the play.
Let the varying amounts of time be denoted by, <em>x</em>.
The director also spent 3/4th of an hour, i.e. 45 minutes, on other responsibilities related to the play.
The equation provided is:
The equation above represents the total time the play director spent preparing for a play.
Answer: $965
Step-by-step explanation:
The used car is priced at $2,695.
If you borrow the money for the car, your payments will be $122 a month for 30 months. This means that the total amount of money that you would have paid at the end of 30 months at a rate of $122 per month is the amount paid per month multiplied by the total number of months. It becomes
Total payment = 122×30 = $3660
This means that you ended up paying higher than you would have paid if you paid cash.
Amount that you would have saved = amount paid over 30 months - cost of the car
Amount that you would have saved
= 3660 - 2695 = $965
