Answer:
slope intercept form.
Step-by-step explanation:
heres the slope intercept form: y=mx+b.
this equation is what you will use to plot lines on graphs, points etc.
the letter b represents the y-intercept, where the line crosses a number on the y intercept on the graph. for example, an initial payment of 30 dollars.
the mx represents slope, or rate of change. for example, paying 5 dollars an hour.
you wouldn't plug a number to the x, but instead the m, because you'd multiply the m with the x.
Based on your question, I think you are asking what slope is. Slope is the rate of change.
Hope this helps!
