What is a linear equation?

A linear equation is Y=MX+B

What does each variable represent?
Y

Y- Value

Slope

x-value

y intercept

How can i solve for slope given two points on a graph, or from a table?
To solve for slope on a graph you use Rise over Run

TO solve from a table you use: Change

in Y over Change in X

How can i solve for the Y-intercept, given the slope and two points.
To solve for the Y intercept given the slope you have to plug everything
into the equation. so heres an example:
Our slope is : -
Our points:
(2,1)

What is slope?
Slope is the
steepness of a line.
What is the Y intercept?

The Y intercept is where the line crosses the Y axis

How can I convert an equation from

standard form to slope intercept form?
To convert an equation from standard to slope intercept form you first
have to isolate Y on one side of the equals sign. You also have to make
sure that the slope(M) is attached to X and is before the Y
intercept(B)
