Question

What are the two things do you need to write an equation?

Answer 1

Answer:

When asked to write an equation, you need to know two things – slope (m) and y-intercept (b).

Or

The Standard Form for a linear equation in two variables, x, and y, is usually given as Ax + By = C where, if at all possible, A, B, and C are integers, and A is non-negative, and, A, B, and C have no common factors other than 1.

Answer 2

Answer:

Slope and y intercept.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is necassary to write the equation of a line in y=mx+b

m is where the slope goes, and b is the y intercept.

Alternatively, you could also write the equation for a line with a point on the line and the slope.

You would then write it in point slope formula:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

This can later be converted into slope intercept form.
